Impact Ventures: scaling-up social innovation

Challenges Entered: 
Impact Ventures will aggregate all the contest winners from the social development sector into one place. Imagine a site that dynamically indentifies social innovators vetted by thought leaders and development institutions worldwide working in various sectors like health, education, conservation and climate change. These winning projects, ready for new partnerships, fresh investment and targeted technical support can be a source of inspiration for replication, while also tying new relationships that will take their work to scale. Two primary data sources will form the initial core of Impact Ventures: data on social contestation, including the winners of dozens and potentially hundreds of social innovation challenges, and the global membership and service provider profiles from the international network of the Impact Alliance. The Impact Alliance has over 200 organizational and 2500 individual members from over fifty countries. These individuals and institutions are both seekers and implementors. This data mashup will offer a marketplace for proven innovations and connect them to organizations and individuals ready to take them to scale.
