Singapore’s signature water event – Water Convention 2009 will be held from 22nd through the 26th of June. The global movers and the shakers of the water industry will gather in Singapore for the second Singapore Water Week.
Close to 10,000 delegates and trade visitors, from at least 80 countries , are expected at the events to be held at Suntec Singapore International Convention and Exhibition Centre. Despite the global downturn and the H1N1 bug spread, the event has drawn even more delegates as compared to last year of 8,500 delegates.
The Convention will cover four main themes:
1.Water Technology Solutions for Today’s Applications
2.Managing Water Infrastructure
3.Water and Health
4.Planning for Sustainable Water Solutions
Over the coming week, high-level discussions will be held among the conference participants, and water-technology companies, both local and foreign, will showcase their latest innovations.
Changi water-reclaimation plant which is Singapore’s largest is also declared open on 23 Jun 2009, as part of the week’s programme. When completed, it will be one of the largest water-reclaimation facility in the world.
