InnoWise Scale supports innovators working on disruptive products or services enabling better water management, optimising water supply and demand, and fostering climate change readiness of the European economy.

The InnoWise Scale activities have been shaped around 3 case studies on water management in the agriculture, infrastructure and water utilities sector, bringing together problem holders with solution providers. The final goal of the InnoWise Scale activities is to accelerate the market uptake of green solutions in Europe.

The Innowise Scale competitions are the final step after a 3-month of mentoring, training, and networking opportunities between problem holders and solution providers.

 

This event is one in a series of three. It brings together 6 solution providers, with already developed or close-to-market solutions contributing to better management of water resources in infrastructure.

Winners of the competitions will be granted 12,000 euros (1st prize), 10,000 euros (2nd prize) in equity-free cash, to be used for scaling up their businesses.
