Innovation - helping us build a more resilient future
Super-charging innovation to pursue our ambition
Innovation is part of our culture. We’re accelerating the pace, efficiency and scale at which we innovate, placing it at the front and centre of everything we do – for our clients, for our business and our people. Innovation allows us to take on some of society's biggest challenges, but our goal is simple. To use innovation to make a tangible, positive difference in the world and to support our ambition to lead in society's pursuit for resilience to climate change.
In 2022, we launched JBA Labs, our innovation accelerator programme. The objective of JBA Labs is to make innovation happen. It’s an enabler. With a dedicated team of specialists, JBA Labs is supporting innovators across the business – from scoping out ideas right through to commercialisation. Helping deliver projects at any scale, from creating more efficient processes to developing game-changing innovations.
