The emerging business models that can help ensure clean water for all

Water is essential to life as we know it. But demand is increasing at an unsustainable rate. Within 25 years, England will not have enough water to meet the country’s demand. 50% of the global population already suffers from polluted water.

There is clearly a need for significant investment in infrastructure and innovative technologies that can help future generations enjoy access to clean water. In ‘The Value of Water’, we look at some of the business models that are emerging to address this challenge.

This is the second in our ‘Investing in the Future’ series, which will focus on the role business and investment can play in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
