This is a free event where you can grab your drink(s) of choice, however, please register your attendance.

Guest Speaker: Dr. Lin Lin Low - Supply Sustainability Manager, Treasury Wine Estates (TWE) & Director of North Para Environment Control P/L

Topic – Promoting Circular Solutions in Wine Making

Water is central to the wine industry. It is one of Treasury Wine Estates’ most critical production inputs. In the face of increasing competitive demands from urban uses, other horticultural crops, and minimum environmental flows water is emerging as a critical part of TWE's social license to operate. TWE acknowledges the company has a significant role to play in being a responsible steward of water in the regions in which it operates. Lin Lin will talk about the TWE approach to water stewardship and the ways the company treats wastewater as a valuable resource that can be recycled to offset demand on natural water systems and provide ongoing local community support.
