As the sector continues to work towards delivering AMP8’s promises, public scrutiny, regulatory requirements and risks to supply continue to add pressure. With this AMP seeing an unprecedented level of investment in drinking water, sector professionals face mounting expectations to perform at the very highest level.
With this surge in spend comes greater scrutiny on efficiency, innovation and value. Companies will be challenged to deliver ambitious business plans, secure resilient supply chains and develop fresh, practical solutions that can be delivered at pace.
The Drinking Water Quality Conference 2026 brings together leaders from across this dynamic sector to explore shared challenges and exchange best practice.

Delegates will examine the implications of new and emerging regulation and legislation and hear from senior figures on managing risk and safeguarding public health—supported by innovative approaches and new partnerships. Further themes include emerging contaminants, environmental protection, resilience, smart networks and monitoring.
We look forward to welcoming you to the conference later this year to explore these critical issues and to connect with peers from across the sector.
