More information

Achieving scaled impact can occur in many ways, including by transferring control of a successful project to a government agency, a public-sector partner, or by providing outsiders with access to tools and insights so they can replicate the approach. We will also talk about what it takes to measure impact effectively and ensure that public interest remains at the center of expansion decisions.
