Hugh Blake-Manson attended the IWA Leading Edge Technologies conference held in Daegu, South Korea, from 29 May to 2 June 2023.

The conference’s key focus is to see leading examples of water and wastewater technology delivery and contaminant challenges.

Hugh noted that the US$250M South Korean Water Cluster is an impressive, extensive and comprehensive facility. 

The team run pilots and proves their “fit for purpose” market readiness all from this facility. The ability to test, at “unit rates” pipes, large water and wastewater membrane plants from manufacturers around the world on a “ship in-ship out” basis is worth seeing!

Imagine what New Zealand could achieve at a centralised national facility with asset management, resilience, and climate change drivers at its heart.
 
Not only did Hugh have a fabulous time meeting the kind, generous, and respectful locals, but he also came away from the trip inspired to turn these learnings into benefits for our clients.
