Iterating Innovation: Reflections on Piloting Startup Solutions for Municipal Needs

​The event will showcase mid-programme progress and key learnings from five pilot deployments between water technology startups and urban local bodies across four Indian cities. It will focus on how systematic needs assessment, technical evaluation, context-specific pilot design, and robust Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) can help create a pathway towards city-wide adoption.

​Bringing together key stakeholders from the urban water and sanitation ecosystem, the event will provide a platform to reflect on pilot outcomes, discuss the challenges and opportunities in institutionalising startup-ULB partnerships, and explore pathways to scaling impactful water and sanitation solutions.
