DEWA has created this year an innovative concept,a business-to-business (B2B) feature to arrange meetings between exhibitors and visitors during WETEX 2015. The new concept aims to provide an ideal environment for meetings between visitors and exhibitors during the exhibition. Through this feature, DEWA aims to facilitate communications between sponsors, exhibitors and those interested in the exhibition, as well as providing opportunities for exhibitors to expand their business and increase awareness about their companies as well as developing partnerships.
The Arab Oil and Gas Show 2015 was organised alongside WETEX and displayed the latest oil and gas global solutions.
Extensive brainstorming sessions were organised or local and international experts in the water, energy and environment sectors, designed to stimulate innovation and access to innovative solutions.
