Who We Are Iota is a genuine partner to the global water industry. Iota's solutions help water authorities proactively monitor and control their water and wastewater assets, reduce operating and maintenance costs, increase customer satisfaction and improve sustainability. As a wholly owned subsidiary of South East Water, we understand all too well the challenges facing water utilities, councils and municipalities globally. In particular, we understand the unique challenges associated with trialling and adopting new technologies and innovation in the water sector. The water sector must innovate, while not compromising its role as an essential service provider. Innovation in the water industry is challenging and authorities often have to accept and adapt products and technology developed for other industries. We believe there is an opportunity for water authorities to play a leadership role in water’s innovation ecosystem and actively design, develop and test new technologies so that they are fit-for-water. Iota is not designed to become a vendor of technology and seeks to transfer its technology and products to industry for local and global impact. Our Business Model Iota has a portfolio of various technologies that it is actively incubating, productising and commercialising for the global water sector, sourced from South East Water as it undertakes its own research and development activities and goes through its digital utility transformation. But Iota is also commercialising intellectual property from other sources such as universities and is open to any game-changing innovation with potential for material global impact. South East Water has a proud legacy as an innovator in the global water industry and so is an ideal place to prove the feasibility, viability and desirability of innovation. Hence regardless of where the technology comes from, it must be ‘proven at South East Water’ before Iota will commercialise.
