The main goals of 3VAND International

The goal is to create an international knowledge and innovation network to the benefit of our clients by delivering better quality of services and to support and contribute to higher export of Danish water technology.

The Danish Water Vision states: “In 2025, Denmark is a world leader in the field of water technology”. As a world leader in intelligent, sustainable and efficient water solutions, Denmark is expected to have doubled its export and created 4,000 new jobs.

3VAND International wants to support Danish export of water technology in the best possible way. The four partners in 3VAND have a common vision for our export supporting initiatives. In other words, 3VAND's Danish water and wastewater experts are at the disposal of the entire water and wastewater industry.
