Product development and strategy consulting for the industrial sector
Across industrial business-to-business sectors, security, sustainability, and affordability are influencing many C-suite decisions as we progress through the latter half of the decade. In a challenging geopolitical and regulatory landscape, with uncertainties in traditional categories, those who succeed will be the ones who find growth in emerging markets.
These new markets are technologically advanced, demanding, and rapidly evolving, with success hinging on innovative, integrated solutions. Sagentia Innovation excels at addressing these complex challenges for leading businesses and brands.

Energy
Supporting businesses with their energy transition strategy
We’re fortunate to live in exciting times with an appetite to phase out traditional fossil fuels, like oil and gas, in favour of alternative energies like solar, wind, and hydrogen. Sagentia Innovation works across all these technologies and is at the forefront of technology development and deployment, stretching the lifecycle of innovation and new ideas like carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS), hydrogen, and sub-sea robotics.
Our team of experts work with end users ranging from big energy firms to smaller technology providers, giving us a unique view of the industry.

Chemicals & materials
Transformative chemicals and materials solutions – where clients keep the IP
In a world increasingly attuned to sustainability, chemical companies must navigate regulations and embrace innovation. The flow of new materials heralds transformative possibilities across sectors, reshaping end markets. From self-healing coatings revolutionising auto repair to carbon-fibre-enforced concrete redefining construction, businesses must rethink value chains. Embracing disruptive technologies, Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and novel business models, they can lead the shift towards sustainability and innovation. Sagentia Innovation can help smooth that path.

Agri-tech
Sensors, precision, and prediction tools at the factory, in the field, or in the dairy
Humans must grow enough nutritious food to support the growing global population while maintaining a recognition that we must do this in a sustainable way. Agri-tech has gone through several revolutions, and the current revolution focuses on precision and machine learning (ML). Sagentia Innovation’s role is to help clients like you navigate this significantly complex system and develop simple, usable, and sustainable solutions.
These solutions come in the form of best-in-class sensors, automation, precision spraying, in-the-field vision systems, and prediction software.

Sensors & instruments
Fluid handling, IoT, and novel sensor development for heavy industry
As with many other sectors, there is a push within instrumentation to collect, analyse and generate value from data. Sagentia Innovation can help you define your connected devices and data services strategy, as we’ve done recently with several processing equipment manufacturers. Our role has been to help them create clear roadmaps and develop products to fit their systems.
Sagentia Innovation’s technical expertise in fluid handling, sensor development, packaging, metering, and IoT/IIoT experience ensures these clients have confidence in the proposed plans.

OTM Networks and JIPs
Collaborations, standards, and recommended practices for the energy sector
Sitting alongside Sagentia Innovation’s consulting practice, OTM Networks initiates, manages, and facilitates several collaborative networks and joint industry projects (JIPs) covering a wide range of challenges and technologies within the oil and gas industry.
Our expertise encompasses:
