Wasser Berlin International Enhances Trade Fair Concept

26.02.2014

Wasser Berlin International – the International Trade Fair and Congress for Water and Wastewater – has enhanced its trade fair concept, thus creating added value for exhibitors and trade visitors. From 24 to 27 March 2015 Wasser Berlin International will be organised in an even more structured format.

In future, the hall layout of the trade fair will reflect the economic cycle of the water industry, whose 360-degree approach symbolises the principle of sustainability as well as demonstrating that Wasser Berlin International showcases products, services and solutions from all parts of the water industry. Trade visitors will be able to find their way around the fair more easily.

In 2015, for the first time, the Wasser Berlin International Congress will take on the format of a Hall Forum and will thus become an integral part of trade fair events. No extra charges will be made for the congress. The concept of the congress will be more tightly structured. On 24 and 27 March 2015 at one session respectively, and on 25 and 26 March 2015 at two sessions respectively, the focus will be on the latest water industry and policymaking topics at national and international level. In addition, specialist symposiums dealing with individual topics in greater detail will be taking place in close coordination with trade fair events.

Matthias Steckmann, director at Messe Berlin GmbH: “WBI is Germany’s international marketing platform devoted to the topic of water. The response to our conceptual changes has been outstanding. In particular this is reflected in the high level of bookings, which currently exceeds the figure for the same period before the last event.“

In addition to No Dig Berlin, the trade fair section with an accompanying symposium on ’trenchless construction’, a further independent section under the heading of ’Flood Management Berlin’ is now also being organised. Flood Management Berlin will deal with flood control, water engineering and disaster management.

New features will include a Board Meeting Area, which will be set up in the Palais am Funkturm next door to Wasser Berlin International. Members of Wasser Berlin, the organisation which sponsors and promotes the event, will be able to hold their general meetings, annual conferences and other internally organised events parallel with the specialist events at Wasser Berlin International.
