Combining Impact Data and AI , with Echoing Green

Join Echoing Green to learn how it layered its impact data with AI tools, and learn what your organization needs in place to do the same.

Echoing Green, the world’s biggest accelerator for early-stage entrepreneurs, and Vera Solutions collaborated to build Echoing Green's impact measurement and management (IMM) system. Echoing Green now uses the structured IMM data to inform its own AI tools for staff support and fellow selection, including reviewing the 4,000+ applications it receives each year. This lunchtime event will explore Echoing Green’s innovative AI usage to accelerate early-stage social entrepreneurs, provide learning opportunities around AI readiness, and connect leading minds across the sector over lunch.

You'll walk away with:

• An overview of how Echoing Green built its IMM system and then used that data to inform AI tools to advance its mission
• A look at Echoing Green's AI Knowledge Assistant that puts data and insights from 1,000 Fellows and over 20,000 applicants in the hands of our team
• The foundations for AI readiness and adoption, including data models, databases, governance, and use cases
• Ideas for thinking about and measuring the value of AI in practice, including time saved, quality of work, and ways to capture and share what you’re learning
• Learnings from small-group discussions on advancing impact data through AI

Who is this for? Impact, monitoring and evaluation, data, program, and operations leaders at accelerators, nonprofits, foundations, UN agencies, and social enterprises. No technical background is required.
