This growing phenomenon, known as the impact economy, is where investors, companies and nonprofits come together and seek to do well while simultaneously doing good. It’s exciting, and it’s changing the ways we think about business, philanthropy, private profits and public goods.

It’s a national — even international — movement, to be sure, but it’s taken special root here in Philadelphia, America's original start-up city.

Greater Philadelphia's impact scene is real, and is as unique as our history; our own particular flavor of this phenomenon.

We encourage you to find out more about our region’s leadership role in the emerging impact economy.
