Pipeline ID: INDIGO-PL-0133
"A group of social entrepreneurs/intrapreneurs were looking back over their past decade in the industry and recognised that many ideas with huge potential for impact failed due to poor execution. Conversations with social entrepreneurs, impact investors, advisors, consultants, philanthropists and academics confirmed that there was substance to this insight.
Offering world class execution support to mission driven organisations can lead to the scaling of great interventions, whose impact may have otherwise been lost. This support is about operationalising strategy, building upon existing traction and good understanding of an issue. For example, helping a doctor with a fantastic solution to develop and execute a marketing plan.
Support is delivered as partnership, with the explicit objective that the work will continue without Picanto, generally with new roles created. The pay by results model means that resource constrained organisations can get access to support they might not otherwise get and also that Picanto is incentivised to ensure a lasting, impactful outcome that continues to add value.
There is also an opportunity to research the type of support that improves the chance of success for mission driven organisations. This research could then be shared with relevant stakeholders."

INDIGO data are shared for research and policy analysis purposes. INDIGO data can be used to support a range of insights, for example, to understand the social outcomes that projects aim to improve, the network of organisations across projects, trends, scales, timelines and summary information. The collaborative system by which we collect, process, and share data is designed to advance data-sharing norms, harmonise data definitions and improve data use. These data are NOT shared for auditing, investment, or legal purposes. Please independently verify any data that you might use in decision making. We provide no guarantees or assurances as to the quality of these data. Data may be inaccurate, incomplete, inconsistent, and/or not current for various reasons: INDIGO is a collaborative and iterative initiative that mostly relies on projects all over the world volunteering to share their data. We have a system for processing information and try to attribute data to named sources, but we do not audit, cross-check, or verify all information provided to us. It takes time and resources to share data, which may not have been included in a project’s budget. Many of the projects are ongoing and timely updates may not be available. Different people may have different interpretations of data items and definitions. Even when data are high quality, interpretation or generalisation to different contexts may not be possible and/or requires additional information and/or expertise. Help us improve our data quality: email us at indigo@bsg.ox.ac.uk if you have data on new projects, changes or performance updates on current projects, clarifications or corrections on our data, and/or confidentiality or sensitivity notices. Please also give input via the INDIGO Data Definitions Improvement Tool and INDIGO Feedback Questionnaire.
