Introducing WRc Ventures
WRc Ventures is where practical innovation happens. It’s our dedicated programme for turning ideas into action, helping to solve real-world problems across the water, waste, and environmental sectors.
Rather than just talking about change, Ventures is about doing: developing applied research, testing new technologies, and working side by side with clients, regulators, and industry to deliver solutions that actually make a difference.
We’re guided by need — whether that’s a challenge raised by a customer, a shift in policy, a regulatory push, or the pressure of climate resilience. WRc Ventures brings together our scientists, engineers, and innovation leads to respond with the right mix of insight, evidence, and creative thinking.
It’s how we stay ahead of the curve — and help others do the same.
