WEFTEC New Orleans 2026 - Water Alliance

From 28 to 30 September 2026, Water Alliance, together with the Netherlands Water Partnership (NWP), will be present at WEFTEC 2026 in New Orleans, the largest and leading water technology exhibition in North America. Together with a strong delegation of Dutch companies, we are organising the Netherlands Pavilion: a collective showcase of Dutch innovation, expertise and collaboration.

WEFTEC: Your gateway to the North American water market

WEFTEC (Water Environment Federation’s Technical Exhibition & Conference) brings together thousands of professionals, technology companies, utilities, government organisations and knowledge institutes each year. For Dutch companies, it offers an excellent opportunity to establish new business relationships, strengthen existing partnerships and showcase the latest innovations to the North American water sector.

At WEFTEC 2026, the Netherlands will once again be represented through the Netherlands Pavilion, where collaboration, innovation and international visibility take centre stage. The pavilion is organised by Water Alliance and the Netherlands Water Partnership (NWP) and is supported through the WTEX10 programme, an initiative of the Dutch government, the Ministry of Economic Affairs, the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management, and the Top Sector Water & Maritime.
