Despite South Africa’s lockdown, WISA is forging ahead with the 2020 WISA Biennial Conference and Exhibition which is expected to be bigger, better, and more exciting than ever before.
The Covid-19 global pandemic and the subsequent national lockdown have brought many challenges, but where others might see roadblocks, the #WISA2020 team sees opportunities. The past six weeks has seen the team adopting the #AllHandsOnDeck mindset and getting creative with the southern African water sector’s biggest event. #WISA2020 will now be 100% virtual. However, the conference will be nothing like the online meetings and webinars you’ve become used. Instead, WISA will incorporate everything that a traditional conference offers and adding a host of additional opportunities and benefits.What to look forward to
- An opportunity to be part of an event that is the first of its kind in the water sector.
- Full access to exciting e-exhibitions that will be presented on a carefully curated solutions platform that will draw the attention of a larger audience throughout the conference.
- Unlimited access to all recorded conference sessions, posters and exhibition areas – live during the conference and available to registered delegates online for months after the event, affording you the opportunity to catch up from anywhere, anytime. With the virtual experience, you don’t miss a thing.
- Unique one-on-one networking opportunities.
- Special delegate discounts and benefits from our exhibitors.
- You’ll even get lunch vouchers!

- No more agonising over which session to attend – now you can have them all.
