HYDROPHIL

HYDROPHIL is a consulting and engineering company focused on the water and environment sectors, headquartered in Vienna, Austria, with a subsidiary in Nairobi, Kenya. Founded in 2002, the firm has built a track record of successfully implemented projects in more than 60 countries, serving governments, municipalities, regional organisations, donor agencies, multilateral funding institutions, the United Nations, and industrial clients. Its work spans the entire project cycle, from policy and strategy development through design, procurement, construction supervision, and evaluation. The company positions itself as an independent specialist that combines niche technical expertise with high-level strategic direction. Its services include policy development support, due diligence and studies, dispute resolution, engineering design, procurement support, construction site supervision, technical assistance and capacity building, and monitoring and evaluation. HYDROPHIL participates in highly competitive international tenders financed by national development agencies and multilateral development banks, and also works directly for industry and manufacturers. Geographically, HYDROPHIL's activities are distributed across Europe, Africa, Asia, and Central and South America. The Vienna headquarters acts as the centre for global operations, while the Nairobi subsidiary serves as a regional hub for growing engagement in Eastern Africa. The company reports having served over 100 clients in more than 170 projects across 70 countries by 2020, and its client base and project experience in 60 countries are described as unique. HYDROPHIL emphasises close collaboration with local market leaders who possess deep country-specific expertise. Its mission is to transform knowledge into society's welfare, contributing to improved living conditions and protection of the natural environment. The firm's work increasingly addresses climate change adaptation, demographic and economic development, pollution, and changing lifestyles, requiring the integration of many disciplines.

HYDROPHIL was founded in 2002 as a consulting and engineering company focused on the water and environment sectors. From its headquarters in Vienna, Austria, the firm began building a track record of internationally financed projects, working for national development agencies, multilateral development banks, and their development partners. In 2010, HYDROPHIL started cooperation with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD). The following year, in 2011, the company prepared the National Water Master Plan for Albania, a project financed by Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW). In 2012, HYDROPHIL acquired a company specialised in river engineering and flood protection and began a six-year technical assistance assignment in Uganda with a team of long- and short-term experts embedded in the Ministry of Water and Environment. By 2014, the company had implemented more than 100 internationally financed projects. In 2018, it established new business lines for irrigation and agriculture and for climate change adaptation. In 2019, HYDROPHIL started cooperation with the Asian Development Bank on a project in Uzbekistan and established a branch office in Nairobi, Kenya. By 2020, the company reported having served over 100 clients in more than 170 projects across 70 countries worldwide. Today, HYDROPHIL operates globally with its Vienna headquarters as the centre for its activities and its Nairobi subsidiary as a regional hub for Eastern Africa. The company continues to work on water, wastewater, and water-related environmental projects, with climate change adaptation playing an increasingly important role.
