Establishing a Thames Basin Collaborative
Date/Time: 22 June 9:00AM-10:30AM
Location: Central London
This session convened by the Water Resilience Coalition in collaboration with the World Economic Forum’s Water Future Initiative will convene a small group of senior leaders across business, government, and civil society to move from discussion to action: to design and launch a WRC Thames Basin Collaborative—a business-led platform to manage water risk at scale.
In this executive working session, participants will:
- Identify shared, material water risks across the basin
- Define the business case for coordinated action
- Explore enabling conditions (policy, finance, delivery)
- Shape an initial set of priority interventions
- Align on next steps toward launch
This is a closed, executive-level discussion designed to produce tangible outcomes and collective action engagement commitments.
Scaling Business Action and Investment on Water Resilience
Date/Time: 22 June 2:00PM-5:00PM
Location: Central London
The session will move beyond frameworks and ambition-setting to focus on outcomes—examining how water stewardship approaches, including Positive Water Impact and basin-level strategies, can support national priorities and deliver meaningful improvements in people’s daily lives.
Together, we will explore:
• How investments in safe water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) contribute to water resilience
• How corporate water strategies can better connect with community needs and public sector priorities
• Practical examples of integrated approaches delivering measurable social and environmental impact
• Opportunities to align corporate investment with basin and national-level objectives
Scaling Growth and Water Resilience through Basin Partnerships
Date/Time: 24 June 9:00PM-10:30AM
Location: Central London
This event is a high-level, invite-only session in the World Economic Forum’s London Climate Action Week program (June 24), co-hosted with the Water Resilience Coalition.
The conversation will focus on lessons from global and European basin initiatives, approaches to aligning financial instruments with basin strategies, and opportunities to strengthen public–private collaboration while connecting leaders with investment and innovation ecosystems. Insights from this dialogue will also help inform the public–private collaboration track of the UN Water Conference (December 2026, UAE).
