About the Program
In April 2022, SAP.iO Foundry Tokyo is kicking off a global sustainability-focused accelerator program which aims to help B2B startups get up and running quickly to enable companies across multiple industries to address sustainability challenges and create a positive impact on both industry and society. This program provides technical and go-to-market support to help startups integrate with SAP solutions, accelerate their entry into a curated, inclusive ecosystem, and scale through mentorship, demand generation, and opportunities to increase visibility with SAP customers.
Focus Areas
This founder friendly program will focus on supporting B2B technology startups across the world with solutions in the following areas:
-
Climate Action: Chasing Zero Emissions
Minimize the greenhouse gas (GHG) footprint of products and operations along value chain with the embedded analytics and transactional capabilities with SAP enterprise applications.

Circular Economy: Chasing Zero Waste
Optimize the value of business by building long-term resilience with less waste, creating business and economic opportunities, and improving the environment and people’s lives society-wide.
-
Social Responsibility: Chasing Zero Inequality
