Plans are well underway for the first ever U.S. ICC World Toilet Summit hosted during the American Society of Plumbing Engineers (ASPE) Convention to be held October 30 through November 3 in Philadelphia. Many noted speakers for world-renowned and respected global sanitation, water and health organizations will present both during education sessions and the International Breakfast on Monday, November 1.

The "2.6 Billion Sanitation Business Opportunities" theme of the 2010 ICC WTS is already attracting many business people interested in learning how they can capture a share of this huge market while helping to solve the global sanitation crisis at the same time.

World Toilet Summit tracks are Innovations in Global Toilet Design, Bottom of the Pyramid Market (1.8 billion of the 2.6 billion people without proper sanitation who have purchasing power) and Micro Financing, Advocacy and Potty Parity, and the Cleaning and Personal Care Market. This conference will reveal how to capitalize on these huge markets while helping to solve the sanitation crisis at the same time. The ICC-focused tracks are Green and Codes & Standards, which both round out the WTS's sanitation topics and complement ASPE's tracks perfectly.
