"Excellent conference, brought people together."

The industry session on day 0 was probably the best for me. The app was really easy to use to set up meetings.

"Excellent networking opportunity"

Meeting a large variety of people. Wide range of subjects covered through roundtables. Short sessions. Many options in parallel to listen and learn.

"Excellent event to meet with clients, colleagues and new colleagues"

Networking and another perspective of the "water sector" coming from global tech companies and utilities.

My experience was very positive. The event was very well organized. there were a lot of networking opportunities and a very good balance in the agenda between the networking opportunities, the plenary sessions, and the breakout sessions.

GWS was great this year. You could really tell all of the work that went into it and the range of different speakers was phenomenal. Enjoyed all of it. Hotel needs some improvement but it is what it is. I know it's hard to find a hotel that can accommodate the conference facilities for the size we are.

A very relevant climate change is water cycle change. And with that comes more flooding, more droughts, more water scarcity and more opportunities to face these challenges head on. And it was a great time to meet people and be together to try to find solutions.

Excellent event to meet with clients, colleagues and new colleagues
What did you like best about the event?
Networking and another perspective of the "water sector" coming from global tech companies and utilities.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
The "Corporate Leaders" program should be more inclusive. It looks like corporates and a few selected consultants are invited while others are omitted. Also, the dialog is focused on "Replenish" and "Net Positive" which is a very narrow view of corporate water strategy and innovation. The Gala Awards event needs a reboot - it is too far to travel and way too long.

Excellent conference, brought people together.
What did you like best about the event?
The industry session on day 0 was probably the best for me. The app was really easy to use to set up meetings.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Attract more people from the global south and from mining, oil, and gas. The focus on water utilities and tech meant that the beginning of everybody's supply chains was not integrated.
