Microsoft Signs Ten Year Partnership with Shayp

Sep 17, 2025 | Posted by Abdul-Rahman Oladimeji

Microsoft has signed a ten-year partnership with Belgian water technology company Shayp to support the launch of its corporate water efficiency platform, Shayp 4IMPACT, designed to deliver verifiable and auditable water savings. It will commence with deployments across schools and public buildings in Brussels and Paris, targeting more than 600 sites.

“In order to become water positive by 2030, part of our strategy is to replenish water in watersheds where we operate,” said Eliza Roberts, Microsoft’s water lead. “Shayp 4IMPACT allows us to tackle these challenges head-on by working directly with schools and public buildings… using precision monitoring to deliver verified water savings where it’s needed most.”


“Our 4IMPACT platform is the first of its kind water replenishment model that enables our corporate partners to achieve verified volumetric water benefits,” said Grégoire de Hemptinne, Shayp’s co-founder and managing director. Through continuous monitoring, we can measure and verify every liter saved, providing guaranteed water savings rather than relying on projections.”
