ONE WORLD (former Palo Alto Impact Center) provides organizations training and capitalto profitably increase their social impact.Based in the heart of Silicon Valley, we leverage our expertise in developing leaders to deliver innovative approaches to increase social impact in a way that it is profitable, sustainable, and scalable. Our clients range from entrepreneurial start ups to Global 500 organizations, and we support a vibrant network of several thousand entrepreneurs, investors, and corporate professionals. Additionally, the ONE WORLD Impact Fund invests capital into highly innovative social enterprises and supports our mission to enable organizations to scale their social impact and improve the lives of individuals globally.One of our core beliefs is that the social impact ecosystem requires deeper and more frequent collaboration among the main players: For-profit businesses large & small, impact investors, foundations, the Non-profit sector, and the public sector. Those of us in the ONE WORLD ecosystem understand how to navigate and ultimately find synergy across these pockets of professionals and organizations that often operate independently. Additionally, organizations have choices in terms of how they operate–the sustainability of their sourcing and operating processes, the diversity of the workforce, the quality of their governance practices, and more. We believe deeply in the power of training and education to transform individuals and organizations. In particular, we believe the social impact field is not fully understood, nor are its concepts embraced by mainstream businesses or the investor community. This holds back the ecosystem as a whole; closing this education gap is what inspires us to do the work we do. From small networking events to full scale multi-day custom programming, we approach our work through a training and education lens.
