Quotes from the Community

I co-hosted an Impact Learning Collective session with UpMetrics because it is so rare to find a space where impact measurement professionals can openly share both wins and challenges. UpMetrics created an incredible environment where funders and entrepreneurs could honestly discuss our measurement work – not just showcasing successes, but diving into real obstacles. This wasn't just a webinar; it was genuine collaboration where we could learn from each other's experiences and solve problems together.

I really enjoyed hearing Marcus [Strothers] speak and took down a lot of notes from him. Human testimony as assessment, thinking of how data is shared in a holistic way if you say you are a holistic program. This is the narrative my board needs to hear!
