Be part of Singapore International Water Week 2026
Held bi-annually, the event welcomes global leaders from business, government and academia to discuss innovative water solutions. Taking place from 15-19 June 2026 at the Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre, SIWW is organised in parallel with the Singapore CleanEnviroSummit.
This year’s event features distinct topics such as water technology and coastal and flood resilience and is a unique opportunity for the Dutch water sector to showcase collaborative and integrated experiences on such projects as coastal and urban resilience to participants from the wider Southeast Asia region.
Location
Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Marina Bay Sands, Singapore
Meet the participating organisations
At Bosman, we understand what water demands and what it deserves. From our headquarters located in the Netherlands, we have spent generations developing smart, lasting solutions for pumping stations and wastewater treatment. Because water is what drives us.
As a family business, we carry more than technical expertise. It started in 1929 with wind-powered water mills. Today, we design, manufacture and install high-performance pumps up to 30.000 liters of water per second and aeration for wastewater treatment plants.
But great technology alone doesn’t make a great company. What truly sets us apart is how we work: honest, committed, and always thinking ahead. We believe in trust — with our clients, our suppliers, and everyone we partner with. Bring us your toughest water challenge regarding aeration or surface water pumps. We’ll roll up our sleeves and make sure it works. Bosman. Deep expertise. Reliable service. Built to last.

Rotterdam WeatherWise (Dutch) is the climate adaptation programme of the City of Rotterdam, a delta city that has turned living with water into a global signature. Below sea level we face flooding, heat, drought and land subsidence. We treat every challenge as a chance to build a stronger, greener and more liveable city. Our work spans the full scale of the delta. From facade gardens, water squares, and depaved schoolyards to green and blue networks, climate adaptive districts and major works such as the Rijnhaven tidal park and the storm surge barriers that protect our coast. We deliver this with residents, regional water authorities, businesses and knowledge institutions. Because no city becomes climate ready alone. Rotterdam works actively with delta cities worldwide, from Singapore to Copenhagen, sharing knowledge and shaping the standards for the resilient watercities of tomorrow together.

Achieving SDG 6 by 2030 requires more than innovation; it requires acceleration. In this fast-paced and interactive session, Dutch water innovators take the stage to tackle one pressing question: what is holding us back from scaling solutions that ensure clean water and sanitation for all?
Through a dynamic series of short debate rounds, leading organisations from the NL Pavilion will share the biggest barriers they face when scaling impactful solutions and challenge each other to identify practical ways to overcome them. The audience will join the conversation through live polls and questions, helping to surface the most urgent obstacles and the bold ideas needed to move faster.
Expect sharp insights, honest reflections, and a lively exchange between innovators and participants. Together, we’ll explore how collaboration, policy, finance, and technology can help close the SDG 6 gap before 2030.
This session will be moderated by Liliane Geerling, programme coordinator Partners for Water, Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO)
