Clean water is essential for resilient communities, ecosystems, and economic growth. While many companies recognize water stewardship as a core business priority, rising demand – particularly from data centers – is intensifying pressure on water resources and complicating water risk management.
This roundtable discussion will bring together a curated group of corporates to share their water-related vulnerabilities, opportunities and leading practices. Discussion will focus on key issues such as water quality, access and scarcity, along with strategies to assess, manage and price water-related risks and their financial implications across industries. Discussion will be structured around water stress across multiple sectors and aggregate impacts with corporates from a range of sectors.
