GRAND DANISH WATER DAY & DI Danish Water Industries General Assembly
Strategic Foresight: How to Foresee the Unforeseeable
We are excited to invite you to this year’s GRAND DANISH WATER DAY, followed by the General Assembly of DI Danish Water Industries.
This year, we are partnering with Water Valley Denmark to bring you an exceptional conference. Building on the success of previous years, we have selected a theme that speaks to the current global climate of uncertainty, both commercially and politically. Our theme is:
"Strategic Foresight: Navigating the Unpredictable Future."
We will explore strategies for water tech innovation and business development to navigate uncertainty, anticipate change, and stay ahead of the curve. Do not miss the chance to connect with fellow water innovators and decision-makers as we convene the water tech community for a day filled with insights and meaningful conversations.
