BRYCK WATER CLUSTER

With Europe’s first real-world laboratory for water innovation, we shape technologies that secure the world’s most vital resource.

Innovating for the world’s most valuable resource

Water is the foundation of life and one of our most critical challenges. Increasing scarcity, pollution, and the impact of climate change are pushing water systems worldwide to their limits. It’s time for bold ideas and new technologies to secure the most valuable resource of all for generations to come.

Europe’s first real-world lab for water innovation

The BRYCK Water Cluster pioneers as Europe’s first real-world laboratory for water innovation. We create a unique space where startups, researchers, investors and industry leaders come together to redefine how water is managed, treated, and reused. Together, we’re developing breakthrough technologies that make water systems smarter, more efficient, and more sustainable.

Our cluster initiator

Through our strategic partnership with RAG Aktiengesellschaft, startups can develop, test, and scale their technologies within one of Europe’s most complex industrial water infrastructures. RAG operates extensive water pipelines, reaching depths of up to 1000 meters. Managing these underground systems requires innovative solutions for monitoring, leakage detection, and real-time analysis – providing startups with an unparalleled real-world testing ground.

Our Ecosystem

Beyond our partnership with the RAG Akriengesellschaft, the BRYCK Water Cluster is embedded in a vibrant industrial network, linking startups with corporate partners, municipal stakeholders, investors, and research institutions - all working towards shaping the sustainable water systems of tomorrow.
