The proof behind purpose
We help the social sector prove impact and value.
In a world where scrutiny is high and funding is tight, proving both impact and value has never been more essential. We partner with you to rigorously measure results, address evidence gaps, and build a credible economic case that resonates with donors and decision-makers.
Our core principles
Academic rigor
The foundation of our work is high-quality methods. Our analyses are designed to meet the highest standards, often rising to the level of academic publication, so that your economic case is both credible and defensible.
Human-centered impact
Driven by a commitment to alleviate human suffering, we strive to understand problems as experienced by those most affected, and define impacts that reflect what beneficiaries themselves consider meaningful.
Deep partnership
Building a meaningful economic case takes time and trust. We work closely with you to identify where your evidence is already strong, where it can be strengthened, and how to frame your results in ways that resonate with donors and decision-makers.
Who we are
We care deeply about alleviating suffering, advancing our clients’ missions, and using economics to unlock greater impact. Trusted by leading institutions like the World Food Programme, Seva Foundation, and the Gates Foundation, we build compelling, evidence-based economic and impact cases.
Our work is led by Dr. Brad Wong, a global expert in economic evaluation, with experience across hundreds of interventions. He is a non-resident fellow at the Center for Global Development, a research affiliate at the University of Bergen and presenting faculty on Harvard's Executive Education Course Valuing Life and Health.
