19 April 2023 | America Square Conference Centre
New Civil Engineer is launching an Innovation Accelerator at this year’s Flood Resilience conference.
The conference will showcase the latest thinking on flood prevention strategies with case studies and best practice, but the Innovation Accelerator will shine a spotlight on technologies developed by SMEs to deliver on the industry’s ambitions.
At NCE’s Flood Resilience event on 19 April our shortlisted companies will be given the chance to pitch live their innovation to tackle the issues surrounding resilience, mitigation or, carbon reduction within the flood sector to an expert panel of judges and other delegates at the event.
Judges will then put questions to the candidates before deliberating over the winner who will be announced at the end of the day.
