WI.Plat Participates in ACE26 and Discusses Smart Leak Management Opportunities in North America

WI.Plat participated in ACE26(AWWA Conference & Exhibition 2026), held from June 21 to 25 in Washington, D.C., USA.

ACE is one of the major water industry events in North America, bringing together water utilities, engineering firms, public institutions, and technology companies to share technologies, operational experience, and policy trends in the water sector. WI.Plat joined the Korean Pavilion at this year’s exhibition and introduced its AI-based intelligent leak monitoring and detection technology.

During the exhibition, WI.Plat met with water utilities, engineering and consulting firms, and other water industry stakeholders from the United States and other regions. Visitors asked about WI.Plat’s leak monitoring approach, field application cases, and potential pilot project opportunities.

In the North American market, aging water infrastructure, operational efficiency, and workforce limitations are key issues for many utilities. Against this background, WI.Plat was able to confirm practical interest in its IoT sensor and AI analytics-based leak management approach. Several utilities and water industry companies also discussed possible follow-up opportunities for field application, business expansion, and local partnerships.

Through ACE26, WI.Plat expanded its contact points with the North American water market and confirmed potential opportunities for practical collaboration with local utilities and water industry partners. WI.Plat will continue to follow up with the organizations and companies connected during the event and explore opportunities to apply smart leak management and NRW reduction solutions suitable for the North American market.

WI.Plat Showcases Global Competitiveness at AWWA ACE 25 in the U.S.

 

Event: AWWA ACE 25(AWWA Annual Conference & Exposition)

 

Date: June 9(Monday) ~ 11(Wednesday), 2025

 

Location: Colorado Convention Center, Denver, Colorado, USA

 

WI.Plat recently participated in the AWWA ACE 25, the largest water industry exhibition in the U.S., organized by the American Water Works Association(AWWA). The event gathered industry leaders, public institutions, and experts from around the world, providing a valuable platform for global collaboration.

 

As part of the Korea Pavilion hosted by the Korea Water Partnership(KWP), WI.Plat presented its cutting-edge smart water leak management technologies, receiving strong interest and positive feedback from North American stakeholders. Key solutions included NELOW, an AI- and IoT-based real-time water leak detection system, and LEOM, an AI agent designed to optimize water treatment processes.

 

At the conference held on June 11, Mr. Gyeongsung Kim, Director of WI.Plat’s Americas Office, gave a technical presentation under the theme “SMART Water Loss Technology”, with the title “Case Studies: Water Leaks Detection through Industrial Internet of Things and Machine Learning Technologies in South Korea and Vietnam.” This session served as a valuable opportunity to showcase WI.Plat’s technological capabilities to a global audience.

 

Based on the positive response from the North American market at ACE 25, WI.Plat plans to strengthen collaboration with local institutions and companies to drive continuous global business expansion.
