HOW THE BILL AND MELINDA GATES FOUNDATION AND FIRMENICH ARE PARTNERING TO ENSURE SAFE SANITATION FOR ALL
Register for our webinar in which Sarah d’Arbeloffc joins the STeP team on August 1 from 9-10 am EDT to speak about Firmenich’s partnership with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to support the new sanitation economy — estimated at $200 billion globally, with $62 billion in India alone by 2021. Sarah brings insights and perspective to help participants understand the Gates Foundation and their Global Access Strategy, and the concern around odor issues associated with toilets. Through a co-financing agreement available to partners with revolutionary ideas —the Foundation’s Global Access Strategy — Firmenich is working to discover, develop and commercialize malodor suppressing technologies. Sarah will highlight
Firmenich’s work addressing sanitation odors, and how Firmenich navigated the Global Access Strategy to ensure creative sanitation solutions make a difference for those most in need — while achieving business objectives.
Sarah will also share how the Foundation’s support enables Firmenich to leverage their strengths to help solve one of the world’s toughest problems – increased usage of toilets – and eventually pursue opportunities to commercialize their innovations in developed markets.
