Water Leakage Reduction Xchange USA 2027 has opened its Call for Speakers, inviting utility executives, water-loss specialists, engineers, asset managers, technology providers, infrastructure leaders, consultants, and public-sector stakeholders to contribute to a focused program addressing how utilities can achieve measurable and sustainable reductions in distribution-system water loss.
Taking place on May 11, 2027, in Los Angeles, California, the one-day conference will bring together water utilities, municipal authorities, regional agencies, engineering firms, metering specialists, leak-detection providers, pressure-management companies, rehabilitation
contractors, and network-intelligence providers responsible for improving system performance across North American water networks.
Water leakage is no longer simply a matter of locating and repairing visible failures. Utilities must establish reliable loss baselines, identify hidden leakage, manage pressure, understand
asset condition, prioritize field intervention, and justify long-term infrastructure investment. The next phase will depend on turning better network visibility into repeatable, economically
defensible utility-wide reduction programs.
Five Strategic Pillars
The 2027 program is structured around five strategic pillars: Water Loss Strategy, Auditing & Performance Management; Advanced Leak Detection, Monitoring & Network Intelligence; Pressure Management & Active Leakage Control; Asset Condition, Failure Prevention & Infrastructure Renewal; and Economics, Regulation & Scaling Water-Loss Reduction.
Across these themes, the conference will examine water audits, real and apparent losses, meter accuracy, acoustic monitoring, remote sensing, smart metering, AI-assisted analytics, district
metered areas, pressure zoning, transient monitoring, condition assessment, predictive maintenance, rehabilitation, lifecycle economics, regulatory requirements, procurement, and long-term capital planning.
Call for Speakers
The conference committee is seeking speakers who can bring real-world utility experience, validated performance data, technical expertise, operational insight, and practical
implementation lessons to these discussions. Priority will be given to contributions grounded in measurable outcomes, field experience, technology deployment, infrastructure programs, and commercially relevant case studies rather than broad corporate or promotional presentations.
Relevant contributors may include leaders from municipal and investor-owned utilities, water districts, engineering and consulting firms, leak-detection specialists, metering and AMI providers, pressure-management companies, network-analytics platforms, pipe manufacturers, rehabilitation contractors, asset-management teams, and regulatory organizations.
Speaking at Water Leakage Reduction Xchange USA 2027 provides an opportunity to contribute directly to the conversations shaping utility water-loss strategies while engaging with senior decision-makers responsible for distribution operations, engineering, asset management,
metering, capital planning, and technology deployment.
Scaling Sustainable Water-Loss Reduction
With 100+ delegates, 15+ expert speakers, five strategic agenda pillars, and a 70%+ senior decision-maker focus, the conference is designed to provide a concentrated environment for technical presentations, executive panels, benchmarking, and structured networking.
The event centers on one defining question: what will it take to turn leak detection into measurable, system-wide water-loss reduction?
Speaker proposals should include the speaker’s name, job title, organization, brief biography, and proposed topic or area of expertise.
