Sooqua

Sooqua is a forward-thinking company based in Germany, founded in 2018. Specializing in the application of smart water network technology, Sooqua harnesses Geographic Information System (GIS) data to effectively prevent pipe bursts, identify leakage, and optimize repair strategies for water suppliers. Through the creation of digital replicas of pipe networks using GIS data, Sooqua's intricate algorithms comprehensively interpret the connections and sensor placements within the network. The company effectively utilizes existing sensors and supplier pipes, transmitting data via LoRaWAN/Sigfox or cable connections to supplier facilities. This approach allows Sooqua to furnish real-time updates on network status, detect and pinpoint early-stage leaks, and foresee potential pipe bursts. By so doing, Sooqua empowers water suppliers to plan repair measures and optimize limited resources, including budgets, materials, and staff. Ultimately, Sooqua ensures the reliable and sustainable supply of water, championing the efficient utilization of this invaluable resource. Notably, the company received Non Equity Assistance investment in September 2019 from the EY Startup Academy, underscoring its potential for further development.
