TFIW, a member of the Singapore Water Association (SWA), participated in the Singapore International Water Week (SIWW) 2026, held from 15 to 18 June 2026 at the Sands Expo & Convention Centre, Marina Bay Sands, Singapore.
As part of its participation, TFIW showcased the potential of Deep Ocean Water (DOW) as a safe, sustainable, and resilient water resource. Sourced from depths of up to 400 metres below sea level, DOW provides a continuously replenished water source that is naturally insulated from many forms of surface pollution and environmental fluctuations, making it a compelling solution for long-term water security.
Mr. Chew Men Leong, President of SWA and Strategic Advisor to TFIW, delivered a special briefing on “GCC Resilience Through Deep Ocean Water Development”. The session introduced the concept of Deep Ocean Water and highlighted its potential applications in strengthening water resilience, supporting economic diversification, and enabling sustainable industrial development across the GCC region.

The briefing was attended by industry partners, investors, and visitors to the SWA Pavilion. The session provided an opportunity to exchange ideas and explore how Deep Ocean Water can contribute to future water and resource security initiatives.

During the event, TFIW also signed Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) with several strategic partners to explore opportunities in project financing with Faraday, sustainable agriculture via Agropolis with Vidacity and aquaculture development with YHL, and advanced aquaculture capabilities. These collaborations represent important steps towards building a broader ecosystem of partners to support the development of the Deep Ocean Water Industrial Park (DOWIP).



The event provided a valuable platform for financiers, investors, technology providers, and industry stakeholders to engage directly, strengthen alignment, and advance discussions on future collaboration. TFIW looks forward to continuing these engagements as the DOWIP project progresses towards its next phase of development.
