Thoughts on Measuring Impact
Measuring impact of investments is a young and developing area. In particular, techniques and approaches for measuring impact on very early-stage companies has very little precedent. We would like to share our learnings, experiences, and insights as we pursue this journey.
We’ve shared thoughts about the current state of the art in impact assessment and reporting from two perspectives:
- first, for entrepreneurs to help them think about the value of impact assessment in their business operations, and
- second, for entrepreneurs and investors, to understand how assessments and reporting of impact can roll up across companies and sectors at the level of a private equity fund such as Unitus Ventures (formerly Unitus Seed Fund).
