How it works
We have a number of technical challenges that we cannot unlock alone, so we are looking for partners that would like to solve them collectively. These challenges change regularly and are updated on this page. Responding these challenges is easy as 1, 2, 3 and 4:
- Find a challenge that your technology could contribute to solving
- Submit your details through the form linked to the challenge
- Our partner agency Yet2 will process your submission and provide you feedback
- If your submission is successful, you will continue your discussions with Unilever
If you don’t see a challenge that you feel your innovation could support but would still like to discuss a partnership, you can also make a general technical submission through Yet2 here.
Will my submission be confidential?
Our Innovation Ecosystem partner, Yet2, will screen all submissions prior to passing successful ones to the scientists and technologists at Unilever. We only need high level information in your initial submission and will not ask for any details that compromise confidentiality.
If your submission is passed to us by Yet2, we will establish a separate confidentiality agreement with you before asking you to share any confidential information.
If you have any further questions, read our innovation ecosystem FAQs.
