Interested in opportunities for Dutch water technology in Southern California?
Water Alliance is working with the Consulate General of the Netherlands in San Francisco, the Netherlands Embassy and Partners for Water to organise a fact-finding mission to Southern California from 2 to 6 November 2026.
Southern California faces major challenges related to water availability, water quality, water reuse and efficient water management. At the same time, these challenges create promising opportunities for innovative Dutch solutions.
We aim to bring together a complementary group of 6 to 8 Dutch water technology companies offering a range of solutions and expertise.
The programme will include meetings with key stakeholders, such as water utilities, industrial companies and public authorities, complemented by relevant site visits. The programme will be tailored to the solutions and needs of the participating companies.
Mission objectives
The mission aims to provide insight into:
- the main market needs and priorities in Southern California;
- relevant laws, regulations and market-entry requirements;
- the match between local demand and Dutch solutions;
- potential customers, partners, pilot sites and follow-up opportunities.
The insights gained will provide the basis for a targeted follow-up strategy and potential future activities in the region.
Why participate?
Participating in the mission offers several benefits:
- gain first-hand insight into local market needs and priorities;
- learn about relevant regulations and market-entry requirements;
- explore how your technology matches local demand;
- build relevant connections with water utilities, industrial companies, public authorities, potential partners and other key stakeholders;
- explore opportunities for collaboration, market entry and business growth;
- exchange knowledge with other Dutch water technology companies interested in or already active in the region.
Who is it for?
The mission is intended for Dutch water technology companies that:
- want to explore concrete market opportunities in Southern California or expand their activities in the region;
- offer a distinctive, market-ready solution;
- are looking for direct insights from potential customers and other stakeholders.
Interested?
We are currently looking for Dutch water technology companies interested in joining this fact-finding mission. We aim to bring together a complementary group of 6 to 8 companies. Based on the solutions and needs of the participating companies, we will further develop and tailor the programme.
