the x4impact story –let’s solve for good
X4Impact is a free market intelligence platform for social innovation with insights to create and scale technology for the public interest.
X4Impact is the Digital Transformation of Giving Tech Labs. As per our learning from incubating 7 successful tech startups that address complex social issues. Our incubations serve over 70,000 monthly users, and in the journey, we created 9 patents, applied research papers, or new legislations.
A growing waiting list of nonprofits seeking help made us realize that it would take us 100 years to create the Tech innovation needed to address their urgent social problems. How can we speed up that?
Our answer is X4Impact, a market intelligence platform for social innovation. We were created by Giving Tech Labs, in partnership with Microsoft, and other leading organizations.
We want to empower tens of thousands of Entrepreneurs, Impact Investors, Philanthropists, and Tech Solution Providers, to create Technology for the Public Interest and do well while doing good.
