FROM THE START

Likewise Impact Lab works shoulder to shoulder to help you…

DESIGN FROM WHAT YOU LEARN

Shape your project around real audience demand in a way that is fundable and sustainable from the start.

CONNECT TO YOUR AUDIENCE

Through iterative audience research, you’ll understand not just what your audience needs, but what they'll show up for.

BUILD YOUR FUNDING CASE

Lead fundraising efforts with compelling research and a real strategy, not just a pitch, a wish, and a prayer.

LAUNCH WITH CONFIDENCE

Go live with clarity, conviction, and the right stakeholders, and a new way of working you'll carry into your next project.

BECAUSE MOST SOCIAL IMPACT PROJECTS AREN’T FULLY...

RESEARCHED
FUNDED

In the lab, rigorous research and thoughtful design come together to shape projects that align stakeholders and
sustain beyond launch.
