Utopi Take Home Mature Solution Win at the Innovation Zero Awards 2026
We’re thrilled to announce Team Utopi was named Winner of the Mature Solution in the Built Environment category at the Innovation Zero Awards 2026, presented today at Innovation Zero Congress in London. We had a fantastic day at the event, connecting with clients, partners, and the wider community of climate innovators driving the UK’s decarbonisation agenda.
One of the largest gatherings of climate-focused businesses, investors, and policymakers in the UK, Innovation Zero Congress brings together the people and technologies shaping the country’s path to net zero. The Mature Solution category recognises proven, scalable technologies already delivering measurable impact across the built environment. It is a category for platforms that are operational, deployed, and evidencing ROI today, not pilots and prototypes.
Utopi has spent six years building the intelligent building data platform for the multi-tenant residential sector. With 78,000+ rooms monitored across 13 countries, and 50Bn+ data points, Utopi is no longer the new entrant. It is the established standard. Real outcomes for our clients include:
- An average 20% reduction in energy consumption across client portfolios.
- Awaab’s Law compliance, SFDR Article 8 alignment, and Legionella monitoring.
- 50Bn+ first-party data points captured, powering The Utopi Platform with insights Asset Owners and Operators can act on.
This recognition adds to a strong run of validation for the company in recent months, including features in The Sunday Times Tech 100, Deloitte’s Fast 50 (#1 in Scotland, #19 in the UK), and being named Innovation Entrepreneur of the Year at the Great British Entrepreneur Awards 2025.
Of the win, Ben Roberts, Co-Founder & CMO at Utopi, said:
“Being recognised in the Mature Solution category at Innovation Zero is genuinely special. It speaks to six years of work by the team, and to the trust our clients place in Utopi to help them deliver on their net zero commitments. The built environment will not decarbonise on ambition alone. It needs proven, deployed, operational solutions, and a partner accountable for delivering the outcome. That is what we’ve built, and we’re proud to be part of the wider Innovation Zero community pushing the sector forward.”
Beyond the award itself, today was a brilliant day at Innovation Zero. Thank you to everyone we spoke with on the floor, to the Innovation Zero team for putting on such a strong event, and to the awards judging panel for recognising Utopi alongside such a high-calibre field of climate innovators.
