Impact Intel

ongoing

The Impact Intel project significantly improves investment decision-making and market transparency by providing multi-level insights into social impact and performance. Its scalable software-as-a-service model ensures affordability while allowing investors to analyse and benchmark portfolios against both industry peers and market leaders. This approach leverages integrated materiality matrices and disclosure data to provide comprehensive information useful for various stakeholders. The project also offers social performance insights akin to financial and risk analysis reports, enhancing transparency and deterring practices like impact washing. Moreover, the availability of this data for research helps advance knowledge within an open science framework, making it a valuable tool for more informed and effective decision-making in the investment community, aiming to become the go-to platform for impact intelligence across Europe. The project is structured into 4 key phases: Discover and Design; Co-create and Validate; Pilot and Refine; and Scale and Sustain, each involving targeted activities to ensure the platform's development, validation, and scalability. Our consortium, comprising 6 partners from Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands, brings together diverse expertise in data-driven innovation, impact investing, market analysis, and social innovation. Open Impact, project coordinator, leads platform development with its digital tools and impact data management expertise. CREAS guides the discovery phase with its market insights. Espacio RES leads co-creation, leveraging its experience in business modelling and planning. Sinloc supports market preparation and strategic positioning. Prometeia brings its expertise in financial analysis to the scaling phase, while Euclid Network handles dissemination and outreach.
