Successful start-ups will enter a joint development agreement with Amcor's R&D team and receive funding of up to $500,000. The first session of Amcor Lift-Off Sprints is scheduled for early 2025, with more details to be announced early next year. Amcor plans to hold two sessions of Amcor Lift-Off Sprints annually.\nAmcor Lift-Off Connect aims to form strategic partnerships and pilots with start-ups that address challenges beyond R&D. While similar in approach to the \"Sprints\" edition, its goal is to nurture collaborations that could lead to further investments. The first session on Dec. 4 will focus on AI in manufacturing and R&D. Future sessions of Amcor Lift-Off Connect will be announced next year, with the aim of conducting two sessions per year.\nThrough these programs, Amcor seeks to continually advance open innovation and collaboration with early-stage start-ups, expanding joint development partnerships in new areas like AI. Amcor is committed to investing up to $3 million annually in these partnership activities, including direct investments and in-kind R&D support. Additionally, this will encourage collaboration between Amcor, its  customers and the winning start-ups, exploring opportunities for three-way collaboration agreements.\nFrank Lehmann, vice president of Corporate Venturing and Open Innovation at Amcor, said, \"We are excited to expand our already successful Amcor Lift-Off initiative, and further energize the packaging industry by elevating these cutting-edge technologies.\" He added, \"This is an important opportunity to work alongside our customers to provide them with the most innovative solutions available to tackle today's packaging challenges.\"\nApplications for next year's  Amcor Lift-Off Sprints and Connect sessions can be submitted in December.
