Are you working to prevent water damage in coastal areas and harbours? Join us in Svendborg for a hands-on event where municipalities, emergency responders, and solution providers come together to strengthen climate resilience.
During the event, you will hear directly from municipalities about the specific challenges they face in relation to storm surges and water-related risks – and you will experience a wide range of permanent, digital, mobile, and flexible flood protection solutions from leading providers.
The event takes place at Rundbuehallen in Svendborg and is part of the cross-border climate adaptation project Poseidon, co-funded by EU Interreg Deutschland-Danmark.
