Sally R won the innovation contract with Skanska in a brand new innovation competition in Real Estate technology, named Proptech Championship. The championship is a collaboration between Skanska and Proptech Sweden, and the first corporate championship in innovation, with the purpose to promote the most relevant and smart solution. Sally R was declared the winner at Sthlm New in Hammarby Sjöstad on Friday the 25th of March.

Sally R is a Swedish Proptech company focused on improving air quality and reducing energy consumption in ventilation of commercial buildings. One of the fundamental ideas when the founders created the company was to make the indoor air quality in buildings less dependent on the outdoor air, as the outdoor air gets more and more polluted. In the Proptech Championship Sally R came up with a solution that both saves energy in ventilation, and captures carbon dioxide from the indoor air.

“Winning the Proptech Championship is a huge deal for Sally R as we will have the opportunity to work with Skanska on game-changing solutions ramping up sustainability in buildings. Sally R combines cloud-based algorithms with a unique carbon capture technology designed for indoor environments. Skanska and Sally R will improve indoor air quality as well as achieving substantial energy and carbon savings for Skanska’s properties.”
-Fredrik Tunberg, CEO, Sally R.
