IBM Sustainability Accelerator 2024 : Resilient Cities Cohort
In alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 11 and supported by the IBM Sustainability Accelerator 2024, this year’s cohort will focus on developing strategies to cultivate long-term urban resilience, making cities inclusive, safe, and sustainable.
At IBM, They believe that technology has the potential to transform lives when directed with purpose. That’s why we’ve designed this program to have a bigger, long-term sustainable societal impact with the power of science and technologies such as hybrid cloud and AI. The IBM Sustainability Accelerator has had fifteen engagements, each with a different non-profit or government organization, divided into 3 cohorts: sustainable agriculture, clean energy, and water management.
Benefits
- IBM collaborates with organizations to design, develop, and deploy a technical solution directly benefiting communities. Throughout the experience, IBM provides access to platforms such as watsonx, IBM Cloud, IBM Environmental Intelligence Suite, and Red Hat open source technologies as well as technical mentorship to build long-term capacity. Organizations selected to participate will be required to enter into an IBM grant agreement governing access to IBM technology, services, and resources.
