In addressing escalating water risks, there's a pressing need for sustainable water management. Various industries, including utilities, and agriculture, grapple with unique challenges such as water scarcity and compliance. Real-time visibility into water supply is crucial for effective decision-making. Technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and data-driven platforms, play a pivotal role in climate change adaptation within the water industry. With the rise of public–private partnerships, privatization is becoming a viable option in the water management industry.
