Water is more than just a necessity, it’s the lifeblood of our cities, industries, and ecosystems. But what if water management could be smarter, greener, and more resilient?
According to the organiser of WATERTECH CHINA, this futuristic water industry is what you’ll see if you visit this year’s event in Shanghai, as the world’s water innovators converge to redefine what’s possible.
This three-day mega event, described as the world’s largest international exhibition for process, drinking, and wastewater, spans 190,000 square meters, and is set to take place from June 4-6, 2025, at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (NECC) in Shanghai.
But, here in the UK, why should we care about WATERTECH CHINA 2025?
Imagine walking through 190,000 square meters of groundbreaking technology, AI-driven water management systems, sustainable treatment solutions, and futuristic pipeline designs. The organiser says this isn’t just another industry event; it’s a global nexus where 2,500+ exhibitors from over 100 countries and regions showcase solutions that might change how we think about water. With 100,000 professionals expected to attend, the opportunities for collaboration, innovation, and discovery could be limitless.
Running concurrently with WATERTECH CHINA is WieTec 2025. This additional event extends its footprint to 260,000 square meters, bringing together 4,000+ exhibitors and 120,000 visitors. WieTec 2025 emphasizes energy conservation, emission reduction, and low-carbon environmental protection, making it relevant for sustainable solutions.
A Glimpse into the Future
In a world where digital transformation and artificial intelligence are reshaping industries, the water sector is catching up fast. The 2025 Digital Water Innovation Summit, happening on June 5, 2025, is where global water experts will gather to push the envelope on digital water management. Themes include:
