You’ve made a grant to a university to fund a project or endow a fellowship. Does the funding you grant to a university lab turn into solutions and products for society, create startups, facilitate newly minted faculty? How can you follow your causes? How do you, in turn, communicate the impact to your stakeholders?

 

As a research funder, you want to make an impact by catalyzing solutions.

You are leading the research agenda by funding grants leading to solutions. Your efforts are for the benefit of the research ecosystem. You want to communicate how the support at the front end of projects yields new knowledge or breakthroughs. The continuity of these successes over time ultimately shows your impact on society.
