PLTR’s COO Shyam Sankar commented, “We are deeply energized by Origin’s meaningful progress against the world’s net zero ambition…Our platform is uniquely suited to support the decarbonization of complex global supply chains. Customers across dozens of industries are using Foundry to build a carbon-focused common operating picture that allows them to track live emissions, simulate scenarios based on emerging technologies and regulations, and make real-time changes to their business.”
