This is what AtkinsRéalis had to say about Utility Week Live 2025
What objectives did you have for UWL25?
Utility Week Live is one of the biggest water shows we do all year, so it’s always about profile and visibility for us. This year was also the first time we showcased our clean power business alongside water, so it was a great chance to show that combined capability.
How did UWL25 meet those objectives?
It’s worked really well. We’ve had a steady flow of people across both days and some really good conversations with clients about both our water work and now clean energy too. It’s been a good mix.
What does UWL do differently from other events you attend?
It’s one of the few events where we get that balance of our established water clients and potential new leads on the energy side. That crossover makes it valuable.
Who did you meet at UWL25?
We have had a good flow of people coming through the stand - lots of familiar faces from the water sector, plus some new people interested in what we’re doing with clean power. The conversations have been exactly what we hoped for - our client facing team, have a lot of new connections to take forward.
How did UWL25 improve your brand awareness?
Bringing the two parts of the business together on one stand definitely raised our profile. People are seeing the full picture of what we do now, not just in water but in energy as well.
How did UWL25 help you demonstrate thought leadership?
The show gave us a platform to talk about how we’re evolving as a business, especially with clean energy coming in. It’s helped us open up those bigger-picture conversations.
How did UWL25 help you capture leads?
The client-facing team have been busy right the way through, having good conversations and making valuable connections for follow-ups.
Why have you rebooked for 2026?
We're rebooking for 2026 because again, it's a good opportunity for us to keep raising our profile. We've booked a slightly bigger space, so it enables us to do more stuff on the stand. It's a good all range show, that's why we are coming back.
