Wilo empowers future leaders at ‘Young Future Energy Leaders Program’ to advance sustainability – The Fashion With Style
outreach program, jointly organised by the German Emirati Joint
Council for Industry & Commerce (AHK) and Khalifa University. The
program convened leading industry players like Wilo, among others,
with an aim to innovate unique solutions for a sustainable future.
As a digital trailblazer in smart water solutions, Wilo reaffirmed its
commitment to educating future generations and paving the way for
a sustainable tomorrow by being an active proponent of the
program. The Smart Water Management market in MENA is
projected to grow at a CAGR of 11 per cent till 2028, driven by
burgeoning water scarcity due to geographical factors, climate
change, population boom and socioeconomic development.
With an aim to address pertinent challenges, Wilo participated in
three key panel sessions centred around ‘Advancing Green
Technologies for a Decarbonised Future’, ‘WILO H2Powerplant
– A Smart Solution for the Use of Green Energy’, and the
‘German Emirati Sustainability Days’ closing session at Khalifa
University to educate students on the future of the industry.
The group’s participation in this altruistic venture further underscores
its long-standing efforts to advance sustainability, led by an
exemplary corporate culture and organisational goals.
During the panel discussions, Yasser Nagi, Group Director of Wilo
Middle East and North Africa at Wilo Group, highlighted their
newly revamped sustainability plan, which aligns with all of its
corporate strategies. He further discussed the diverse initiatives
aimed at reducing the company’s carbon footprint, highlighting the
utilization of climate-neutral hydrogen to power on-site electric
vehicle fleets as a significant example.
Nagi said: “At Wilo, we save energy and protect the environment by
utilising highly efficient pumps and facilitating a sustainable value
chain. Sustainability and social responsibility are at the core of our
organisation, through which we aim to make a lasting impact across
key areas of ‘creation’, ‘care’ and ‘connection’. Driven by this noble
commitment, we actively endeavour to nurture young minds by
