The biggest risk to some of Europe's critical infrastructure this summer wasn't a cyberattack, a power outage or a supply chain disruption. It was a lack of water. From healthcare and manufacturing to food production and energy, water underpins almost every system we rely on. Drawing on lessons from one of the world's most water-intensive industries, this lecture explores a practical Water Kaizen approach to understanding where water is used, what it truly costs, and how organisations can reduce, reuse and recover it more effectively. Learn how a Water Kaizen approach helped a major pharmaceutical campus in a water-stressed region cut water consumption by more than 40%. By understanding the cost and users of water across a city, campus, building or utility using the simple principles of Measure, Reduce , Segregate, Reuse, Recover, this methodology can be applied across any sector.
