Meet the Advisory Board

Composed of top executives from across water, gas and power, the board will guide the exhibition’s strategic direction, ensuring it reflects cutting-edge trends, innovations, and challenges facing the industry today.

The Advisory Board members bring decades of experience across a range of disciplines including policy, engineering and infrastructure, retail, R&D and innovation, and offer invaluable insights, in addition to the Utility Week Live team’s extensive market research, which will shape this year’s agenda.

Their input is critical in curating keynote speakers, panel discussions, and networking opportunities that align with the evolving needs of industry professionals.
