Chapter 06 · Partnership
This mission is looking for partners. Not sponsors.
In the 2026/2027 Antarctic campaign, a small team of specialists will build the digital twin of the Znosko glacier - surface and depth in one record. A partner does not buy a logo placement. A partner joins a scientific mission and takes home its evidence.
Why partner
What your organization takes home.
Climate impact
The Znosko record is measurement, not narrative: ~70 m of frontal retreat and 4-5 m of ablation documented in 13 months. Your support extends that record while the glacier can still be recorded.
Scientific advancement
One integrated method - LiDAR, thermal, radar, GNSS - building the most complete digital representation of the Znosko glacier within the mission, alongside INAIGEM and IGN Peru.
ESG substance
Real field data for your sustainability reporting - evidence your stakeholders can verify, not slogans. The opposite of greenwashing.
Global visibility
An Antarctic expedition generates what few brands can: authentic stories, footage and 3D models from one of the last places on Earth - with your name attached from day one.
What your support enables
Every contribution funds the mission directly.
Equipment & sensors~30%
Sensors and instrumentation for surface and depth: LiDAR, thermal imaging, ground-penetrating radar, GNSS.
Antarctic logistics & access~30%
Transport and field deployment on the Znosko glacier, via BAP Carrasco and the Machu Picchu base.
Field operations~20%
A lean three-specialist expedition - 21 days in one of the most demanding environments on Earth.
Data processing & digital twin~12%
The multi-temporal baseline that turns single surveys into a scientific record - year after year.
Scientific communication~8%
Publications, mission films and open storytelling that carry the evidence - and your role in it - to the world.

Sponsor testimony
“Supporting research and knowledge is a gesture towards something that surpasses us, beyond the duration of our experiences, beyond the functional convenience of cause and effect. It is a legacy that does not look to the immediate. It considers the continuous reverberations that shape our world, from which no one can be considered a stranger.”
Start the conversation
Tell us who you are. We will take it from there.
Every partnership starts with a conversation, not a contract. Write a few lines and a member of the mission team will reply personally.
