Collaborating for a better world

In 2018, the 100+ Accelerator was launched to support the achievement of the UN SDGs and exponentially to fuel the growth of startups developing critical sustainability solutions. The program is co-sponsored by Anheuser-Busch InBev, Coca-Cola, Colgate-Palmolive, Danone and Unilever. Through this partnership, five of the largest consumer goods companies in the world open up their supply chains and leverage their teams to work with startups to maximize collective impact.

By funding up to 100K USD per startup pilot, the partners test and validate each solution to then scale and transform their global supply chains. Such collaborative partnerships allow industries to work together using their scale, resources, and purchasing power to fuel sustainable innovation. The 100+ Accelerator has accelerated 148 companies in 38 countries.
