Pioneering WATER AI for You
On this page:
Wilo is shaping the future of water management with a clear focus on innovation, responsibility and long-term value creation. With our Group Strategy ‘Pioneering WATER AI for You’, we combine our expertise in water technology with the potential of artificial intelligence.
We are guided by our vision to contribute positively to people and the environment through our solutions. Our mission is to act as a pioneer by developing smart water technology solutions for key challenges in water management, while making a measurable impact on defined areas.
Our strategy integrates corporate sustainability, technological innovation and responsible action into one coherent approach. It is based on our three impact areas: Creating, Caring, Connecting. This is how we are shaping the WATER AI era.
WATER AI describes the systematic connection between water technology and artificial intelligence. We combine our entrepreneurial commitment with the possibilities of artificial intelligence to systematically advance processes, systems and decision-making. In this context, AI can play a key role in supporting specific sustainability targets – for example, through the data-driven optimisation of processes and use of resources.
An integrated Group Strategy
With ‘Pioneering WATER AI for You’, we are combining two key strategic approaches into a single Group Strategy: Wilo’s sustainability and AI strategy.
The structure remains based on the established impact areas – Creating, Caring and Connecting – enhanced by the WATER AI perspective. Our functional and regional strategies are derived from Wilo’s Group Strategy.
Artificial intelligence is an essential factor in further developing processes, systems and decision-making based on data, while supporting the implementation of strategic goals.
