Developing joint business opportunities

When the acumen7 network was established, it created an environment for business opportunities to be brought to the table, debated and germinated. This has been possible through the diversity of experience, knowledge of the marketplace, strong connections and the ability to make things happen.

A number of business opportunities have been successfully spawned by members of the network with impressive results. Here are two:

EUROPE BUILD

THE SMALL HYDRO COMPANY

The Small Hydro Company funds and develops small scale hydro electric generation installations making use of the available energy in lowland rivers and tidal estuaries. The objective of the business is to harness this source of renewable energy at suitable locations, providing direct benefit to land owners and sustainable long-term benefits to the wider community.
