Impact and return
on investment assessment
The Investment Impact IndexTM
Methodology Meets Technology
Next Generation has created an integrated impact measurement and management solution, the Investment Impact Index™ (III™), that uses a 360-degree approach to impact data by utilising technology as a platform to:
- speed up the process of impact measurement and management,
- visualise impact data,
- provide deeper insights into impact data and
- provide more cost-effective solutions to the social and impact sector
What we do
Next Generation analyses, verifies and makes actionable recommendations on all the data related to funds, investments, projects and portfolios in a shorter time and more cost-effective manner by calculating the impact achieved, with more than 50 dimensions (impact and return) identified and capturing impact data and analysis in an impact report and dashboard. The proprietary impact assessment technology and reporting solution is a tested impact methodology and impact framework that identifies impact indicators and measures the total impact and return resulting from philanthropy, social and impact investments.
