Grow Impact is a marketplace of researchers for funders. We simplify the way funders meet researchers and make the process of funding research more efficient. Our patented visual planning system allows researchers to showcase their research and share their journey with external supporters. Funders are able to find, compare and evaluate researchers that meet their requirements of suitable researchers to support.

Researchers spend far too much time writing grant applications and keying data into multiple systems (upwards of 40 hours per application) and success rates are low and declining. The main way of getting funding is to submit multiple grant applications regardless of the chances of success.

Funders receive an increasing number of grant applications, many unsolicited, with the administrative burden increasing significantly. Selection of researchers to fund is becoming more of a lottery and not always the best research gets funded.

Grow Impact allows researchers to plan, track and showcase their research, sharing their journey with potential funders. This removes the need for multiple entry of the same information in different application forms. Funders can access a database of researchers/projects and use filters to select the researchers that match their investment criteria. They can then compare and evaluate researchers and invite selected researchers to apply for grants.
