Sand Technologies Partners with Envision Racing to Launch AI Solutions for Accelerated Impact

The global AI solutions company will work with the Formula E race team to develop AI tools that drive results and advance the team’s broader sustainability mission.

NEW YORK, Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Sand Technologies, an enterprise AI solutions company, today announced a partnership with Envision Racing, one of the founding teams in the FIA Formula E World Championship, to develop AI applications that improve the race team’s performance from the boardroom and beyond, and support its mission to accelerate the transition to e-mobility and renewable energy.

The team’s Race Against Climate Change™ program has 300,000 fans whom the team engages to help drive climate-change progress in cities around the world.
