This year’s theme is "Water Innovation: Bridging Gaps, Creating Opportunities". Innovative solutions to address major European and global water challenges will be on the table. At the same time, other issues to be explored will include market opportunities for these innovations, both within and outside Europe, and how to remove barriers by advancing and leveraging existing solutions.
