Agile Impacts

Exciting things are coming soon! Last week, the Agile Impacts team came together in #Valencia for a retreat — and for many of us, it was the first time meeting in person! We spent a few intense and inspiring days co-creating ideas to boost our efficiency and impact. Together, we worked on: • Finding international #grants faster for all our clients • Designing AI-powered tools to automatically match grants with the right companies • Configuring our software to make impact measurement and data collection easier and more accessible • Building a simple system to apply for grants using all that data Huge thanks to the incredible team that made this possible Gorka Llona Courtney Sipes Freya Cobbin Javier B Graterol F Heidi Sánchez Marc Sintes Pons Andoni Llona Leonel Villarreal - "Choco" Stay tuned for what’s next! #ImpactMeasurement #GrantsForGood #AIforImpact #DataForChange #SocialImpactTech #AgileImpacts #ImpactDataCollection #GrantMatchmaking

#Startups like yours are doing incredible work—creating impact, tracking #data, and proving results. But here’s the thing: numbers alone won’t get investors, customers, or partners to truly believe in your mission. People trust #stories, not just spreadsheets. 🔥 In today’s newsletter, we break down: ✅ Why a strong brand turns impact data into real influence ✅ How trust is built through clarity and storytelling ✅ What we learned at Agile Impacts from our own rebrand with Brandian If you’re measuring impact but struggling to make it matter, this one’s for you. 🚀 Read the full piece & subscribe to Impact Measurement for Startups newsletter #ImpactStartups #ImpactMeasurement #BrandingForImpact #StartupGrowth #StorytellingForChange

Back in 2011, I struggled to secure funding for my #impact project. I had a strong vision but couldn’t communicate my impact in a way that resonated with funders. It was frustrating to know my work mattered yet not be able to translate it into funding. That challenge led me to create solutions to help organizations measure their impact and access grants more easily. Today, with Agile Impacts I continue this mission—because when impact is clear, #funding follows. Even though this video is from 2018, my vision and passion remain the same. If you’re an impact entrepreneur facing similar challenges, let’s connect. Your impact deserves to be funded. #FundingForImpact #ImpactMeasurement #Grants #AgileImpacts #SocialEntrepreneurship Cartier Women's Initiative

At Agile Impacts, we believe that true sustainability goes #beyond #zero #emissions—it’s about understanding how businesses affect #people, #communities, and #ecosystems in a meaningful way. That’s why we were thrilled to lead a session on #Impact #Measurement & #Management for the Rural ClimAccelerator Iberian program, helping startups embed impact at the core of their business models. 💡 Key insight: “The way we see the problem shapes the #impact we create.” A huge thank you to Rural ClimAccelerator for fostering innovation and empowering changemakers to go beyond zero emissions and create real impact. #BeyondZeroEmissions #ImpactMeasurement #Sustainability #ClimateInnovation #SocialImpact #ImpactInvesting #AgileImpacts #RuralClimAccelerator

Indonesian enterprises seeking USD 100K–1M face 🕳️📉 a funding gap - too big for microfinance, too small for venture capital. This gap contributes to the USD 50B+ annual funding shortfall to achieve Indonesia’s SDGs. The latest report from the Indonesia Impact Alliance (IIA), our National Partner, discusses critical gaps and potential solutions in Indonesia’s growing impact investment ecosystem. 💡De-risking investments through blended finance can attract private capital into high-impact sectors, driving transformative change. 🌍 By adopting global models like the UK’s Better Society Capital, Indonesia could establish an Impact Investment Wholesaler to bridge funding gaps and drive systemic capital flows.

After struggling to raise #capital from impact investors, I decided to embark on a different path— #grants. By leveraging our own AI-powered impact measurement software to streamline the process, I secured 6-figures grants in just 6 months without giving up any equity. Now I’m helping other #impact #entrepreneurs learn how they can win grants, too. As a founder myself, I know how lengthy grant applications can easily fall to the bottom of our to-do lists—that's exactly why we built a system tailored to the needs of busy founders. Join me on Tuesday, 28 Jan at 09:00 CET where I'll share: -The exact method we used to secure funding (and now help other founders use) -How to leverage AI to build compelling impact metrics, even if you're just getting started -Current grant opportunities globally -Plus, a live Q&A to answer any questions you have about grant funding and impact measurement.
