Friday lunchtime lecture: Measuring the entire charity sector

Until now some people have been looking at and analysing certain pockets of that data, but nobody has taken impact data for the whole sector and put it in one structured place. In this talk, CEO and Co-founder of SoGive, Sanjay Joshi, will talk about the challenges of creating a suitable data structure for something that is intrinsically hard to quantify, how to create a social enterprise and a business from a dataset, and how this data could help individual charity donors make more of an impact. About the speaker Sanjay Joshi is CEO and Co-Founder of SoGive, a tool that enables charities to measure their impact on the world. He has been active in the charity sector for the last 15 years, having been on the board of around half a dozen charities, provided consultancy services for a few weeks at a time for around half a dozen charities across the globe, and has been involved in around half a dozen groups to encourage philanthropy. He has previously worked in a niche strategy consultancy and for a major credit ratings agency, among other financial roles.
