United Utilities’ Innovation Lab is an idea development programme headed up with L Marks to launch innovations that will transform the water industry.
The 14-week programme will see Atmos develop a multi-method approach improving the performance and monitoring of water pipelines.
Martin Duff, Business Development Director for water said:
“United Utilities’ Innovation Lab recognizes only the ideas that have the most potential for delivering significant improvements to its operations, so I’m thrilled that we’ve secured a spot on this year’s programme.”
Jun Zhang, CEO and Founder of Atmos said:
