It’s hard to believe it’s already been a month since Aquatech Amsterdam! From live demos to expert panels and more, the week was packed. Whether you joined us at our booth or followed along online, here’s a quick look back at the highlights.

A full week of demos, panels and real conversations

Throughout the week at Aquatech, we hosted a packed agenda of live sessions—both at our booth and on the Digital World Stage. From showcasing our water intelligence platform to exploring where emerging tech is taking the industry, it was a full house every day.

We shared the stage with “Q,” our voice-activated digital water assistant at our booth. And on the main stage, we joined experts like Dragan Savic and Paul Fleming to talk about the real impact of generative AI and digital twins in the water sector. Dunea also joined us to share how they’re using collaborative technologies to improve network visibility and boost resilience.

Honest conversations about the future of water

Panels throughout the week brought together voices from across the water industry—utilities, researchers, software providers—to dig into the role of innovation in water management. Sessions included how generative AI is transforming water operations, the risks and benefits of using AI in water, and how utilities and software providers are working together to drive innovation.

It wasn’t just about showcasing what’s possible—it was about talking openly about what’s working, what’s not, and what’s next in the industry.

Ending the week with momentum

We came to Aquatech to share, to listen, and to learn—and we left with even more energy to keep pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in digital water. Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth, joined a session, or sparked a conversation.

Open Water 2.0:
Open platforms, Marketplaces & Community

Open Water 2.0 builds on the foundation of our first Open Water whitepaper, which explored the value of open data, open-source software, and open collaboration in the water sector. In this paper, we introduce three new critical drivers to the Open Water approach: Open platforms, Digital marketplaces and Communities in motion.
