ADB e-Marketplace for a Water-Secure and Resilient Asia and the Pacific
ADB e-Marketplace spotlights innovative solutions, latest technologies, and best practices for a resilient Asia and the Pacific.
Upcoming Session
Anticipating Risks and Climate Shifts - Digital Approaches to Understanding and Managing Water Systems
14 May 2026 | 1:00-2:00 p.m. (Manila time)
This e-Marketplace session brings together digital solutions that enable earlier detection and more informed management of water systems, answering the challenge statement "How might we use digital technologies to strengthen integrated water resources management through earlier detection and response to risk?" From sensor-based monitoring to satellite-derived insights, the session explores how emerging technologies are helping utilities and governments understand system changes, strengthen asset management, and respond to risks more effectively.en approaches, it highlights how resource flows can be better understood, managed, and reintegrated—redefining circularity in water and solid waste management.

(Session 27) Closing the Loop: Smart Technologies for Circular Resource Systems
Circularity is often discussed as an ambition, but making it work requires systems that can recover, process, and reuse resources efficiently. This session explores how emerging technologies are enabling circularity in practice, offering new ways to capture value from both water and waste systems. Through the use of AI and sensor-driven approaches, it highlights how resource flows can be better understood, managed, and reintegrated—redefining circularity in water and solid waste management.
Presenting Technologies
1. WOTA: WOTA developed decentralized water recycling systems that treat and reuse wastewater on-site, enabling closed-loop water use.
2. Reconnai: Reconnai delivers an AI-powered waste intelligence that generates real-time data to improve material identification, sorting, and recovery..

This March, the e-Marketplace session highlights preventive and responsive systems that help cities manage flood risk and maintain continuity of services. As flood events continue to strain urban drainage systems and critical water infrastructure across Asia and the Pacific, strengthening resilience has never been more crucial. Join us as we uncover two technologies supporting urban flood resilience:
Presenting Technologies
1. Maezawa Indursties: Maezawa Industries offers emergency shutoff valves that rapidly isolate affected part of potable water networks to sustain the service, and 2. ShinMaywa: ShinMaywa developed an innovative pump station system designed to efficiently manage floodwaters while simplifying long-term maintenance Maezawa Industries Pitch Deck ShinMaywa Pitch Deck(Session 25) Plastics, Reimagined: A session on plastic waste recycling
Plastic waste remains one of the most persistent environmental challenges in Asia and the Pacific. Recycling is a critical part of the solution, but effective interventions are not without challenges. This e-Marketplace session brings together three complementary technologies addressing different points along the plastics recycling chain. Join us for an insightful session exploring practical solutions for recovering, recycling, and reintegrating plastics into use.
- Circulyzer: Circulyzer developed a novel and efficient plastic waste washing & separation technology.
- EREMA: EREMA specializes in efficient, industrial-scale recycling systems designed for long-term viability.
