Xylem Together 2023: An European Partner Event Fostering Sustainable Partnerships for a Water-Secure Future

Xylem’s premier European partner event took place in Vienna from April 18-19 

Vienna, 26. April 2023. Last week, water sector channel partners gathered with global water technology leader Xylem for their inaugural European partner event. With a focus on nurturing long-lasting partnerships for success, the event aimed to forge new sustainable alliances and reinforce existing ones to unlock untapped potential for growth and innovation. 

Over two action-packed days, attendees engaged in panel discussions on market trends and challenges, as well as workshops and exhibitions highlighting Xylem's cutting-edge products, technologies, and solutions. More than 200 participants, representing over 70 channel partners from nearly 30 European countries, embraced Xylem's call to establish sustainable partnerships in Vienna. Christoph Kullmann, Vice President of Channel Management at Xylem, said, "Xylem Together 2023 provided a unique platform to deepen our relationships with our partners and explore new ways how we can extend our business and environmental impact together – both now and in the future." In alignment with Xylem's mission to solve water and secure a water-sustainable future for generations to come, these objectives prioritize energy efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, and net-zero water consumption. 

A highlight of the event was the charity auction in support of Watermark, Xylem's social responsibility program. Participants bid on Manchester City-branded prizes, with Xylem matching the winning amounts. The auction raised over €36,000, which will be donated to water-related projects aiding war relief efforts in Ukraine, in collaboration with Xylem's NGO partner Americares.
