“The Northern Territory is a world class business events destination that attracts thousands of business events delegates here each year.

“Our business events sector is an important pillar of the Northern Territory economy with business events facilitating trade and investment opportunities, knowledge sharing and meaningful legacy benefits whilst currently contributing over $38 million into the local economy each year.”

Peter Savoff, General Manager Darwin Convention Centre

“The Darwin Convention Centre is delighted to be the host venue for MicroWater23. Our world class venue is well-positioned within Australia’s tropical harbour city to provide delegates with the space to think and exchange ideas on the study of microorganisms and their communities in water environments.”

Darryl Day – 21st International Symposium on Health-Related Water Microbiology, Co-Chair Organising Committee

“We are excited that world leading experts in Water Related Health Microbiology are coming to Darwin. It is an opportunity to learn and network with legends in water science and practice, and turn the spotlight on water challenges in Australia and the broader Asia-Pacific region.

“We are very keen to explore increased microbial risks presented by extreme events, which will be more frequent with climate change, opportunities in wastewater surveillance, and importantly for the Territory, the role of water-safety plans in providing safe drinking water. In planning the 5 day Symposium we are looking at opportunities for Territorians to engage with our national and international guests.”
