Sustainability
Our commitment to sustainability.
ASIAWATER Expo & Forum 2022 - A smart & sustainable event.
We know sustainability is increasingly important to our attendees and exhibitors, as well as to the industry that we serve, namely the water and wastewater industry. Running our exhibition and conferences gives us lots of opportunities to improve our impacts environmentally, socially, and economically in our host cities. We want to make our event more responsible and play a role in helping our markets improve its own sustainability through connecting people with the networks and knowledge they want to help solve the big challenges in our sector.
To achieve our sustainable goals in running our physical event this year, we will run ASIAWATER 2022 as a Smart & Sustainable Physical Event, where we will have our physical event be accompanied by digital elements. This is a way to achieve our sustainable goals while enhancing your trade event experience and simultaneously reducing the carbon footprint when running our event.
In our efforts to reduce the event’s carbon footprint, we will, for example, replace our traditional printed event directories with a downloadable Interactive Digital Directory. More about our Interactive Digital Directory will be coming soon!

Sustainability in Informa Markets.
At Informa Markets, many of our stakeholders are clearly telling us that sustainability (social, economic and environmental) is something that is no longer a nice to have but a necessary part of any event. We want to make sure we’re meeting those expectations and we believe that being sustainable is the right thing to do.
We also recognise that it’s not just about the way we produce our events and products but recognizing that we have a role to play in providing a space to work in partnership together with our markets to inspire the sustainable development of the industries we serve. This is an ongoing process for us and we’re looking for ideas of how we can improve.
