Full Line up announced for the Isle Innovation Zone at Utility Week Live!
Isle will be hosting the Innovation Zone at Utility Week Live on the 16th and 17th May 2023 with an exciting lineup of speakers and technology company exhibitors. Explore the Isle Innovation Journey over the two-day event.

The Isle Innovation Journey will start at the mouth of the innovation river with Isle´s Water Innovation Living Lab (WILL) accelerator programme for early-stage technology developers. The journey continues downstream through Isle's Technology Approval Group (TAG), our established innovation forum showcasing 'step-change' technologies from around the world, given the opportunity to pitch to end users. Finally, the journey takes us to the Trial Reservoir, a reservoir of risk-free loan funding to accelerate the adoption of technologies to help the water sector achieve carbon neutrality. Check out our jampacked agenda filled with a wide range of innovative technology companies and industry expert speakers over the two-day event! We are very excited to welcome you to the Isle Innovation Zone to discover the Isle Innovation Journey at Utility Week Live.
