Founding Partners Programme
Shape the future of sustainability intelligence.
An invitation for a small group of selected organisations to work with us, shape SustainMatrix and benefit as early adopters.
Limited to an initial group of ten organisations.
Why we invite partners
The best software is shaped by the people who rely on it.
We build around real operating questions. Founding Partners bring theirs directly, and see their priorities reflected in the platform.
Collaboration
Regular sessions with our product team on your sites, data and reporting needs.
Influence
Your feedback shapes what we refine first and how sector workflows work.
Long-term value
Benefit first from what you help shape, with preferential terms after the first year.
Partnership benefits
What Founding Partners receive.
Complimentary first-year platform access
Up to 12 months of platform subscription for the agreed scope, from the start of onboarding.
Guided onboarding
Set-up with our team: your structure, sites, data sources and first reporting period.
Direct product influence
Scheduled feedback sessions and a direct line to the people who build the product.
Preferential renewal terms
Founding Partner pricing after the first year, agreed in advance in your partnership agreement.

Questions
Frequently asked questions.
How many organisations can join?
The programme starts with an initial group of ten organisations. We may close applications when places are filled.
What happens after the introductory period?
You can continue on preferential Founding Partner terms, agreed in advance in your partnership agreement. There is no obligation to continue.
What do we need to commit?
Time from a named lead for onboarding and periodic feedback sessions, and access to the data needed for your agreed scope.
Is implementation included?
Guided onboarding is included. Implementation projects, custom integrations, data migration and consulting are scoped and agreed separately.
Will our data be shared with other partners?
No. Each organisation’s data is kept separate. Any benchmarking uses comparison sets that do not identify other organisations.
Can we see the platform before applying?
Yes. You can book a demonstration first, or tick both options on the application form.
