Applications are open for the IBM Sustainability Accelerator 2025. This new cohort will aim to create sustainable consumption and production solutions, supporting United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 9 or 12 to accelerate sustainable economic development, boost supply chain efficiency, and expand AI deployment and capacity.
Each year, the Accelerator selects five organizations requesting pro bono IBM support for projects addressing environmental and economic stress. Together, selected organizations and IBM design, develop, and deploy technology configured to accelerate, scale, and otherwise optimize specific interventions directly benefiting communities.
The IBM Sustainability Accelerator has had 20 engagements, each with a different nonprofit or government organization, divided into four cohorts: sustainable agriculture, clean energy, water management, and resilient cities.
