Salesforce and partners back new challenge to accelerate sustainable aviation
In California, Salesforce said that together with Airbus, Breakthrough Energy, Boom Supersonic, Deloitte, Eni, JetBlue Ventures, Qantas Airways Limited, and World Energy, launched a call for ecopreneurs to submit innovative solutions to support the decarbonization of the aviation sector.
This initiative is a collaboration between the First Movers Coalition (FMC) and UpLink to scale and commercialize innovations in sustainable aviation.
Proposals will be accepted from August 24 through October 2, 2023, and the selected innovators will be announced later in the year, Salesforce said.
The challenge is hosted on UpLink, a global hub for innovation managed by the World Economic Forum, with support from Deloitte and Salesforce.
“To meet our climate goals, we must bring disruptive clean technologies to market at scale. Together with our partners, Salesforce thoughtfully approached this sustainability challenge as a way to support and foster innovative ideas from ecopreneurs who aim to help decarbonize the aviation industry,” said Suzanne DiBianca, EVP and Chief Impact Officer, Salesforce.
