From 25 to 27 November 2026, the new international trade show for water technology — Aquatech Asia — will take place for the first time in Bangkok.

The trade show is supported by an impressive list of founding partners, including NX Filtration, Nijhuis Saur Industries, Ramboll ((Netherlands Water Partnership), and Water Alliance. The Dutch government and the Dutch Embassy in Bangkok are also closely involved. “Aquatech’s expansion to Bangkok is a significant step in addressing the growing water challenges in Southeast Asia,” said Daan Burghouts, Director Aquatech Global at RAI Amsterdam. “Our presence in Bangkok will foster collaboration and knowledge exchange, enabling water to support societal progress and resilience.”
With
Aquatech Asia, RAI Amsterdam adds a fourth international location to
its Aquatech portfolio, alongside Amsterdam, Mexico, and China. The
event aligns with RAI’s mission to connect and inspire people and
markets worldwide through impactful events. Aquatech Asia will take
