Hanoi and Belgian sides seek cooperation in smart water management technology
VOV.VN - The Hanoi Sewage and Drainage Company Limited and HydroScan Company of Belgium signed a memorandum of understanding on smart water management technology cooperation at a ceremony held in Hanoi on September 12.
The technological collaboration will take place within the framework of the non-refundable ODA grant programme of the Belgian Government for a project on transferring smart water management technology to Vietnam.
Addressing the signing ceremony, Phan Hoai Minh, general director of the Hanoi Sewage and Drainage Company Limited, noted the event marks an important initial step towards securing cooperation goals between the two sides.
The project on transferring smart water management technology from Belgium to Vietnam will help to improve the system's overall efficiency and optimise the capital’s drainage system, he stressed.
Patrick Swartenbroekx, managing director of HydroScan Company of Belgium, expressed hope that the Belgian firm would continue to strengthen ties and expand operations in the country in general and Hanoi in particular through partners such as the Hanoi Sewage and Drainage Company Limited.
The signing of the document on smart water management technology cooperation marked an important milestone in realising that goal, Swartenbroekx shared.
