Wates Group<\/a> has launched the Wates Innovation Network<\/a> (WIN) portal, a self-service, interactive and intelligent marketplace for sustainable innovation<\/h2>\n

The WIN portal is the first initiative of its kind, designed to help businesses \u2018build back better<\/a>\u2019, connecting companies directly, and free of charge, with partners that can offer solutions to help meet sustainability targets.<\/p>\n

The WIN portal aims to create an industry-leading network that will accelerate the transition to net-zero by showcasing smarter solutions to design, construct and maintain buildings.<\/p>\n

Wates has been working to connect businesses with tech-led innovations for eight years through its Wates Sustainable Technology Services<\/a> (WSTS) offering.<\/p>\n

Organisations, including Barings<\/a>, Merseyside Police<\/a>, Standard Chartered and the Wates Group itself, have previously used the innovation network to source technologies, improve efficiencies, and further develop ambitious new climate pledges.<\/p>\n

The new online portal will streamline this process with a more dynamic and efficient customer experience, enabling the Group to better support partners in providing tangible environmental and operational savings.<\/p>\n

Wates also intends to use the portal as a means of expanding the current marketplace of green technologies which can be used within the built environment<\/a>.<\/p>\n
