In order to guide businesses struggling to measure their impact, we had the pleasure of interviewing Atilana Piñon, the co-founder of Retorna, a company dedicated to enhancing the lives of immigrants. Through this interview, we discovered how she successfully incorporated the theory of change into their impact measurement methodology. By exploring this inspiring story, you can learn how measuring impact can drive the growth of a startup and promote effective negotiations with stakeholders.
