The Dubai-based company sets up its new R&D office in Leeuwarden, leveraging Dutch water tech expertise to address water challenges in sub-Saharan Africa
Dubai-based Desalytics, a pioneer in water quality and management innovations, has expanded into the Netherlands with a new innovation hub at WaterCampus Leeuwarden. This strategic move allows Desalytics to collaborate with leading experts and organizations in the world-renowned Dutch water technology ecosystem, fostering research & development efforts that can enhance its mission to provide sustainable water solutions for communities in sub-Saharan Africa.
The Netherlands is a well-established leader in water tech, supported by a strong ecosystem that encourages R&D and sustainable solutions. By joining this vibrant community, Desalytics aims to integrate cutting-edge technologies and best practices into its operations, improving its ability to address water challenges in the African continent. Together with the Netherlands, Desalytics is reshaping how water management is approached on a global scale.
Desalytics is committed to combining global knowledge with local partnerships to provide innovative water treatment solutions. This ethos aligns seamlessly with the Netherlands’ culture of open innovation through collaboration. Through its new hub in the Dutch city of Leeuwarden, known as the water tech capital of Europe, Desalytics gains access to a vast network of advanced R&D know-how, industry leaders and growing startups.
In particular, WaterCampus Leeuwarden fosters collaboration among businesses, knowledge institutes and governmental entities, benefiting both Dutch companies and international players like Desalytics. By engaging with this network, Desalytics aims to enhance its impact through shared knowledge and cooperative efforts. This will enable Desalytics to pioneer innovative, sustainable solutions inspired by the Dutch water tech ecosystem, fostering international collaboration that can contribute to transforming water management worldwide.
A key aspect of Desalytics’ strategy is its emphasis on empowering local entrepreneurs. By partnering with local businesses, the company disrupts traditional supply chains while promoting economic growth and sustainability. This approach enhances the effectiveness of water solutions and reflects a broader trend seen in the Dutch water tech sector, where collaboration and local expertise are essential for success.
Desalytics is dedicated to delivering high-quality water products and services tailored to the needs of municipal and industrial customers. The company focuses on optimizing processes to ensure reliable testing results and maximize returns at competitive costs. This mission matches well with the Netherlands, a country known for its effective water management practices.
When it came time to expand into the Netherlands, Desalytics drew support from the Netherlands Foreign Investment Agency (NFIA) and its Invest in Holland partner NV NOM, along with Dutch water tech network organization Water Alliance and the municipality of Leeuwarden. As a result, Desalytics was able to establish a strong foothold in Leeuwarden. Now with its innovation hub in the Dutch water tech landscape, Desalytics is well-positioned to grow its global impact in developing sustainable water solutions for sub-Saharan Africa.
We are very pleased with Desalytics setting up its Dutch subsidiary at Watercampus Leeuwarden. We enjoyed working with Desalytics, together with our NFIA colleagues, in supporting them to set up their activities in the Netherlands and will continue to do so. Desalytics will collaborate with multiple organisations at Watercampus Leeuwarden and therefore contribute to further strengthen the ecosystem for watertechnology companies Reinder de Jong, Project Manager Internationalization NOM
