We've been accepted into Google for Startups Sustainable Development, which grants It Goes Forward €40,000 in Google Cloud credits. Forwarding already runs on Google Cloud in the EU region (europe-west4, Netherlands), so the credits go directly into scaling the platform on infrastructure that runs on carbon-free energy targets.
The programme supports startups whose products reduce carbon, waste, or resource use. Forwarding fits: every Forward cuts warehouse cost for retailers and saves an average of 310 grams of CO₂ per return. Non-dilutive support like this is how we keep building without trading equity for runway.
