We are at the doorstep of the Changemaker decade. The growth of social impact activity is changing our very systems for making change. With more Impactors, projects, and investment comes the need for new ways to support and measure impact.
ImpactX is the social and knowledge network for Impactors worldwide, and the resource for tools and frameworks to better manage and measure impact.
Join our global broad-based community of Impactors: individuals and organizations, public and private, philanthropic and for-profit. All come together at ImpactX to share knowledge, incubate innovation, evolve practices, and measure and amplify results.
Find invaluable tools for Impactors, whether doers, sponsors, investors, or followers. The IX Project Space provides a cloud-based home for impact projects and offers integrated tools designed to streamline core functions, such as progress tracking, measuring outcomes, and capturing and aggregating data, as well as facilitating visibility, donations, crowd funding, and stakeholder engagement.
“In 2020 CII made the decision to move from Excel spreadsheets to online tools for tracking our initiatives. We also wanted our donors to be able to review and fund initiatives directly online. Working with Ashoka, we choose ImpactX to be our tech backbone. The suite of cloud-based tools is enabling us stay on top of our many initiatives and connected with stakeholders and donors. Now we have the infrastructure to expand operations to 7 countries. ImpactX has been a great fit for us.”
“CII is creating important systems change through its Mutuality initiatives, which depend upon peer-driven change. CII was able to build a branded Mutuality Platform within the ImpactX Platform, which encompasses its ecosystem of partners and projects. ImpactX is allowing the Mutuality model to scale.”
