Evolution of Impact Measurement and Management
by Impact Entrepreneur, LLC
Thu, March 21, 2019 12:00 PM – 1:15 PM EDT
The evolution of measurement for impact investing is rapidly advancing, driven by consensus-building conventions for terminology, dimensions of impact, and principles. Many in the field of impact investing see this as a critical step forward to reduce fragmentation and produce opportunities for alignment that are critical for the growth of the impact investment field overall. Current framing of measurement as impact measurement and management (IMM) signifies a growing commitment to using data for transformative impact.
Panelists in this webinar have been active in field-building efforts and co-creation of new conventions and approaches. The panel includes Clara Barby from the Impact Management Project, which has coalesced hundreds of stakeholders in developing dimensions of impact; Kelly McCarthy from the GIIN, who actively engages in building Navigating Impact and the new IRIS+ system; Sara Olsen, founder of SVT and Social Value US, which promotes principles that guide IMM practices; and Uma Sekar, a trailblazer in developing IMM for Unitus and Capria Ventures. The panel is moderated by Jane Reisman, Social Impact Advisor and IMM field builder.
This live webinar & Q&A is ideal for actors throughout the ecosystem of impact investing: asset managers, asset owners, intermediaries, social enterprises, and public and civic partners engaged in impact investing. Participants will:
- Gain insight into the major breakthroughs in impact measurement and management
- Reflect on the state of impact measurement and management in their own organizations
- Explore current trends and conventions to help them chart a path forward in aligning with those conventions.
