Ashfords headline sponsor of ISWA World Congress 2026 Gala Dinner

A highlight of the international waste and resource management calendar, the Gala Dinner forms part of the ISWA World Congress 2026, which runs from 9 to 11 November.

The event is one of the most significant events in the global waste and resource management sector, bringing together organisations and individuals who are driving innovation and shaping the future of sustainable resource management.
