Spring and Ofwat partner to promote innovation knowledge sharing

Spring, the UK water innovation centre of excellence, and Ofwat have partnered to publish a vision for better knowledge sharing in the water sector, with a view to unlocking faster adoption of innovation.

The vision is underpinned by six best practice principles:

• Learn from existing information before committing to innovation projects.

• Target innovation insights at the right audiences to meet objectives.

• Regularly share insights through multiple channels from day one of the project.

• Ensure insights from both innovation successes and failures are shared.

• Ensure sector knowledge is open and centralised.

• Empower people to receive and embed lessons from external sources.

This follows engagement with the sector throughout 2024.
