Impact performance and evidence

Evidence is an integral part of Nesta's approach to impact investing.  We believe that measuring the impact of the products or services we fund is just as important as increasing the capacity of an organisation to actually deliver the product or service. 

We want to work with organisations committed to improving the evidence of their impact over time.  We have developed our own Standards of Evidence for Impact Investing.  The purpose of developing these standards is to provide a framework against which we can grow the evidence that a particular product or service is having a positive impact, to ensure that what we fund is making a difference.
