Almar Water Solutions has sponsored the Global Water Summit 2024, held in London from April 15 to 17. Under the theme “Security for a Changing Planet,” this event brings high-level leaders and executives together to discuss the most critical challenges and opportunities in the global water sector.
Almar Water Solutions participated on March 20th and 21st in the ACADES 2024 Congress “New Water Sources for Chile,” held in Santiago, Chile, and organized by the Chilean Desalination Association (ACADES). This event focused on the country’s water security and featured Almar Water Solutions as one of its sponsors, reaffirming its commitment to addressing water challenges in the region.
