Mission to Oman Sustainability Week
Oman Sustainability Week is the Sultanate of Oman’s national event dedicated to sustainability. The weeklong event provides an enriching platform for the industry to network, showcase innovative strategies aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s), and engage with the national stakeholders.
The delegates in the mission to Oman are looking to learn about the existing and emerging opportunities in the rapidly growing sector, and to get firsthand information about the multi-billion water, power, and renewable energy projects underway and in the pipeline in Oman.
They are looking forward to acquiring new business contacts and leads from Oman and the wider Gulf region, and to taking the opportunity to connect with the sponsors of the Oman Sustainability Week, such as:
- Nama Group (formerly Oman Water & Wastewater Services)
- Oman Environmental Services Holding Company (Be’ah)
- Shell Oman,
- Asyad Group (Oman’s global integrated logistics provider), and
- OQ (Oman’s global integrated energy group)
The event is supported by, amongst others, the Oman Environment Authority, the Oman Hydrogen Centre, the Oman Clean Energy Council, the Ministry of Economy, and the Foreign Ministry of Oman.
Oman Sustainability Week 2024 will run concurrently with the International Sustainability Resources & Technology Conference (ISRTC). All events will be held at the same venue.
