In a first of its kind, the Smart Water Networks Forum (SWAN) has launched the SWAN Asia-Pacific Alliance, which will be free to join in its first year. The APAC Alliance, which includes progressive utilities and leading solution providers, seeks to advance the use of “smart”, data-driven water and wastewater solutions across the fast-growing region.

George Theo, CEO of Unitywater and Chairman of the new SWAN APAC Alliance, commented: "This Alliance is a very important initiative, which will have a key role in sharing best regional smart water practices, generating cross-industry discussion, and encouraging cities to better understand and maximise their water data.”

The Alliance is excited to announce that its first webinar, “Pioneering Utility Smart Water Innovation in Asia-Pacific”, will be free to attend on May 16th at 3pm (AEST). The webinar will feature innovative utility speakers from Unitywater, Watercare, and PUB Singapore. Click here for more information and to register to attend.
