[Insight + innovation = influence]

= Impact

What makes us different is the combination of policy research and insights, creative innovation and our global influence. It’s a formula that drives business value and creates change.

Impact initiatives

Over the past year, Economist Impact has expanded its work to address some of the world’s most pressing challenges through four new initiatives focused on food insecurity, health as a driver of economic growth, the transformative power of technology, and sustainable urban development.

Each initiative combines independent research, policy analysis, expert perspectives, creative storytelling and events. Our goal is to inform debate, spark ideas and help shape a more sustainable, prosperous and inclusive future for all.
