What are the challenges and opportunities for businesses in regions in need of clean water and sanitation? How can we create sustainable businesses that help people in need at the same time? Is the business situation the same in developing countries and disaster areas?

What solutions are available, and what is needed? Sensors and remote water management; robust off-grid disinfection; toilets that are clean, safe and easy to use and maintain; decentralized treatment of water and sewage.

At this event organized by WIN Water, SEI’s partner in the sWASH & grow project, we will explore decentralized systems and business models, and how they can be applied in areas where they are needed the most. Join us and listen to experts with field experience, learn about exciting new solutions and meet potential business partners.
