Empowering disadvantaged and women entrepreneurs with knowledge, networks, and capabilities to build sustainable and impactful enterprises.
Through targetted programmes and strategic partnerships, we empower entrepreneurs to embrace responsible business practices, access markets, and create positive economic, environmental and social value.
We coach, mentor, and support disadvantaged and women entrepreneurs on sustainable business practices, integrating them into national, regional, and global supply chains.
We undertake critical assessments and counsel on the risks associated with exploitative and harmful business practices as well as green and social washing.
We design and deliver capability-building and grassroots impact projects for the public and private sectors, civil society, and NGOs.
At IMPACTO Foundation, we collaborate with businesses, industry leaders, and civil society to empower micro and small enterprises with skills, resources, and networks they need to thrive.
