Braze Submits Near-Term Science-Based Targets

We are excited to announce that Braze has officially submitted its near-term Science-Based Targets (SBTs) to the Science-Based Target Initiative (SBTi), marking a significant milestone in our sustainability journey. This submission reflects our commitment to aligning with globally recognized standards for carbon emissions reductions, further advancing Braze’s sustainability program.

What is the SBTi?

The SBTi is a globally recognized organization that helps companies set emissions reduction targets in line with the latest climate science. The initiative devises specific rules for emissions reductions and timelines in line with efforts to limit global warming to 1.5℃.

The SBTi provides companies with a framework for establishing SBTs, which are measurable goals designed to align with the specific scientific consensus on what is necessary to mitigate the worst impacts of climate change.

Through a rigorous target-setting process, SBTi reviews and validates a company’s proposed targets to confirm they meet their criteria and reflect the level of ambition needed to limit global temperature rise.

By establishing targets that are aligned with the latest climate science, companies like Braze play a critical role in driving the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Why It Matters to Braze

At Braze, we believe that taking action on climate change is not only a responsibility but a business imperative. Submitting our near-term SBTs is a key step toward strengthening our sustainability program. We expect to have an approved target in the first half of FY’26, aligning us with best-in-class standards for carbon reduction.

An approved SBT will also support Braze compliance with climate regulations. As governments and regulatory bodies around the world continue to adopt more stringent environmental practices, companies like Braze need to be prepared to meet new compliance requirements. Our SBT submission shows that we remain proactive in addressing the concerns rooted in emerging global climate legislation.

Approved SBTs will also help Braze meet the evolving expectations of our customers, many of whom are increasingly prioritizing sustainability in their supply chains and partnerships. More companies are expecting their vendors to have climate action plans in place, including the adoption of SBTs.

By aligning ourselves with the SBTi, we not only are preparing to respond to a potential growing demand but also strengthen our ability to foster long-term relationships with sustainability focused customers.

What’s Next?

We will work with SBTi on the review and approval of our targets over the first few months of FY’26. During this time, Braze will continue to push forward on key aspects of our sustainability strategy, from reducing our carbon footprint across our operations to integrating sustainability more deeply into our company culture. We look forward to sharing more updates as we receive feedback from SBTi and work towards our target approval.
