Michal Jirdašek, Key Account Manager, MEGA A.S. (Czech Republic)
We are MEGA, a Czech company that creates engineering solutions designed to purify, recycle, and rethink water and industrial processes. We combine traditional engineering with advanced membrane technologies, specifically paramembrane and electromembrane processes. The key advantage we offer is that we develop and manufacture everything ourselves, in-house. From the initial membranes to the final turnkey solutions, everything is handled "under one roof." We build our technology based on our own proprietary know-how and extensive experience across various industries.
For us, Azerbaijan is no longer just a new spot on the map. We first attended Baku Water Week last year and immediately sensed a strong interest in our technologies. That was when we established our first contacts with Azerbaijani partners and colleagues—relationships that have continued to develop well after the exhibition ended. These meetings are particularly important to us because each one has the potential to grow into a real project and a long-term partnership.
Today, we are interested in the entire Central Asian region. Our technology is flexible enough to be used not only in water treatment but also in the food industry—two completely different sectors united by a single engineering logic. It is important to understand that, for us, exhibitions are not places where "contracts are signed in two days." Rather, they serve as a starting point. This is where the first dialogues begin, where interest is sparked, and where we hear the first "let’s discuss this in more detail."
Our technologies are already operational worldwide; if you were to unroll a map, a large portion of it would be "colored" by our projects. In Azerbaijan, we also have several promising directions that we are currently actively developing.The most valuable asset at these exhibitions is the people. Here, we meet local manufacturers who are very open and engaged, as well as guests from Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Belarus, Cyprus, and other countries. It is a rare combination: an international environment that remains intimate enough to truly talk, hear one another, and launch real projects rather than just exchanging business cards.
