NMWE

Patricia Fosselard has been Secretary General of Natural Mineral Waters Europe, the voice of the bottled water industry in Europe, since 2005. In that time, Ms. Fosselard has guided NMWE’s transition from a regulatory-focused organisation to an active partner with the European institutions and a driving force behind the industry’s progress on packaging circularity and overall sustainability.

Before taking over at NMWE, she was an in-house lawyer for Spadel, the leading Benelux natural mineral water producer, and worked for the Federation of Enterprises in Belgium (FEB-VBO) where she helped develop the Belgian code of Corporate Governance.

Ms. Fosselard is Vice-President of the International Council of Bottled Water Associations (ICBWA).
