In a time when water security is increasingly recognised as a critical business concern, this panel will bridge the gap between traditional water sector expertise and the industries that rely on this vital resource. This event will bring together key stakeholders who operate outside the regulated water sector yet face equally pressing challenges related to water scarcity, wastewater management and evolving regulations. Through knowledge sharing and strategic discussion, participants will gain the insights needed to safeguard their operations and adapt to future water risks.

The event will begin with a deep dive into the current state of the UK water sector, offering an overview of regulatory frameworks, operational challenges and emerging threats such as climate change and supply chain vulnerabilities. Attendees will hear from water industry experts, policymakers and leading businesses that have successfully navigated these complexities, providing a roadmap for mitigating risks and strengthening resilience. Discussions will highlight the urgent need for cross-sector collaboration, ensuring that businesses beyond the water sector have the understanding and tools to make informed decisions.

By amplifying the voices of strategic water users, we aim to drive awareness at both industry and policy levels, ensuring that businesses affected by water challenges play an integral role in shaping the UK’s water future. Whether you are navigating operational water risks or seeking to align your business with a more resilient and sustainable future, this event is an opportunity to engage, learn and lead in water resource management.

This event is delivered in partnership with The Global Summit Series, a Community Interest Company serving as a dynamic platform for communication, collaboration and innovation to tackle some of the most pressing water-related challenges.
