Cities around the world have been experiencing severe storms and extreme weather patterns over the past decade, leading to devastating floods that have destroyed properties and disrupted communities.

Held in the alternate year between main editions of SIWW, SIWW Spotlight 2025 will focus on how cities can adapt and build greater resilience to floods and extreme weather events. It will bring together leaders from cities, utilities, regulators and industry to exchange experiences, share case studies and facilitate peer-to-peer learning in tackling such climate challenges.

To be held from 23-25 June 2025 at the Singapore EXPO, SIWW Spotlight 2025 will be organised under the theme “Flood Resilient Cites: Adapting to Climate Change” to drive impactful exchanges and build partnerships for collective action. Sessions at Spotlight 2025 will feature a cities roundtable, high-level panels, industry forums, a solutions marketplace, and networking functions.

SIWW Spotlight 2025 will be co-located with the 41st International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research World Congress (IAHR2025), with joint sessions to be organised between the two events.
