Description

In this episode of Meaningful Conversations, we sit down with Kamakshi Sharma, Director of Marketing & Strategy at Aquatech, to explore what growth truly means for the future of the water industry. Kamakshi leads Aquatech’s global marketing and communications efforts and plays a central role in shaping market and business strategy across the organization.

At a time when climate change, water scarcity, and rapid urbanisation are reshaping our world, water is no longer an afterthought—it’s at the centre of global, industrial, and municipal decision-making. Kamakshi shares why the industry is at a pivotal moment, with unprecedented opportunity to influence how we manage and protect this critical resource.

From the rise of innovative membrane technologies and ZLD/MLD solutions to increased collaboration between industry partners, we discuss how technology, regulation, and co-development are accelerating change. Kamakshi also highlights a powerful cultural shift—greater diversity in the sector and more women entering the industry earlier than ever before.

The conversation goes deeper into water reuse, closed-loop systems, and the growing focus on recovering value from water, not just treating it. Together, we tackle one of the most pressing questions of our time: can we overcome water scarcity in a way that leaves the planet with better water quality for future generations?

This episode offers a hopeful, grounded perspective on where the biggest impact can be made—and why industrial and agricultural reuse will play a critical role in shaping a more sustainable water future.

🌊 A thoughtful and inspiring conversation about growth, responsibility, and what’s possible when water moves to the forefront.
