As a business founded in Scotland, there is something particularly special aboutwelcoming such an important global event to a city that has played a significant part inRSE’s story.
As Principal Sponsor, we are looking forward to sharing our experience, but just asimportantly, to listening and learning from customers, partners, researchers andindustry leaders from across the world.
Sharing ideas and experience
The water sector faces significant and increasingly shared challenges, from ageing infrastructure and climate pressures to water quality, resource constraints and the need for more sustainable services.
The Congress provides an opportunity to explore how different countries and organisations are responding, what lessons we can learn from one another and how innovative ideas can be translated into practical action.
Throughout the week, our teams will be contributing to discussions and sharing experience across treatment, modular delivery, chemical solutions, control and automation, digital technologies and sustainable solutions.
Turning conversation into action
The theme of this year’s Congress, Water action: the path to resilience and prosperity, reflects the need to move beyond ambition and focus on implementation.
For RSE, innovation has always been closely connected to delivery. We are looking forward to conversations about how the sector can deliver infrastructure more efficiently, make better use of digital technology and collaborate more effectively to solve today’s water challenges.
Above all, we are looking forward to meeting people, exchanging ideas and welcoming the global water community to Glasgow.
The IWA World Water Congress & Exhibition 2026 takes place at the SEC Glasgow from 4 to 8 October 2026.
If you are attending, come and meet the RSE team and join the conversation.
