Working breakfast program below
Israel and the EU are the leading economies in the field of water treatment. Despite the harsh geography and climate, Israeli companies have developed technology that is demanded from countries all around the world. Challenges like growing populations and climate change enhance the need for this technology. To solve these challenges further cooperation between Israeli and European SMEs is important. By combining technology and expertise a global water crisis can be avoided. Furthermore, the question of how the right policy decision can enhance this cooperation needs to be discussed and solved.
