Event: Israel's Water Sector and WATEC 2019

On February 13, 2019, we’ll convene to tell you about WATEC, availability of STEP grant funds, benefits of traveling with our delegation, and brief you on Israel’s water sector. See the MTO online calendar for event details. The MTO is pleased to partner with Fredrikson & Byron and the American Israel Chamber on this event.


Canada water sector report

Mexico on a map

Minnesota’s representation in Mexico, Global BMT, has completed some fresh research on Mexico’s water business sector, see the report here. The report mentions a number of pending infrastructure projects (like planned desalination plants), but if you don’t see something for you, there’s plenty of niche opportunities—the MTO and Global BMT can assist in identifying them. Contact the MTO to discuss.
