The International Water Mist Conference (IWMC) 2026 is set to return this October.
The 25th edition of the IWMC is due to take place on Thursday, October 7 and Friday, October 8 in Prague.
New training workshop added to the programme
The organisers have announced a new feature to its regular day-and-a-half programme.
This year’s conference will also include a dedicated half-day training workshop which will focus on the design and effective use of water mist systems.
Attendees of the workshop will be able to obtain CPD certificates.
Industry networking, case studies and standards discussions
As well as getting the opportunity to network with other people working in the sector, conference visitors can expect to hear case studies, take part in discussions about standards and guidelines and address achievements and challenges.
Topics will include emerging risks, broader application areas and continued technological evolution.
The Ragnar Wighus Award will also be presented. This year, it will honour the author of the best Master’s thesis dedicated to smaller droplets. The deadline for submitting synopses is Tuesday, March 31.
Max Lakkonen, President of IWMA, said: “Prague is more than a conference, it is where the global water mist community comes together to share knowledge, challenge ideas, shape the future of fire protection – and enjoy doing it together.”
