Stuart recently attended the AWA & IWA Water Efficiency Conference in Melbourne (EFFICIENT 2025), and it was a fantastic opportunity to connect and reconnect with others passionate about shaping the future of water. The three days’ sessions covered everything from smart metering and leakage detection to behavioural change and digital innovation – all geared toward making our water systems more efficient and resilient. It was great to see how much collaboration is happening across the sector, both locally and globally. This is an excellent biennial global conference recommended to anybody working in water efficiency. We were fortunate that this year it was held in Australia, Efficient 2027 will be held in Lisbon.
