Innovation Hub Opportunities
Showcase Your Innovative Technologies
The Innovation Hub is a curated space designed to celebrate and embrace change. If you are looking for a place to showcase your innovative solutions that help solve water sector challenges — you can find it here!
Solving the complex challenges facing the water community in 2050 will take innovation – and collaboration. The Innovation Hub is a curated space designed to celebrate and embrace change, highlight emerging technologies and trends, and engage in meaningful conversations to advance a sustainable and resilient water future. This makes the Innovation Hub an ideal space to showcase the thought leadership of water solutions providers, through select exhibit and sponsorship opportunities not found anywhere else at ACE23.
AWWA’s Water 2050 Initiative tackles the most critical drivers impacting the water community’s future – Sustainability, Technology, Economics, Governance, and Social/Demographic. Similarly, the work of Water 2050 has also highlighted the need to engage strategic partners to address challenges encountered along the way. Throughout the conference, the Innovation Hub’s engaging professional program and suite of networking events bring together key stakeholders to inspire the innovative thinking needed to address the water challenges of today – and create an extraordinary Water 2050 future of tomorrow.
