In Place Impact

In Place Impact is the only organization in the world that uses Impact Economics so that in the normal course of helping ALL community stakeholders achieve and exceed their goals, it naturally helps communities become economically, socially, and environmentally sustainable for ALL residents. It is all done through business and economics, no one is asked to give up or donate their gains, and it has a heavy focus on helping communities attain the United Nations SDGs. Furthermore, as factions of our country call for more Profit at the expense of Purpose and vice versa, we know that there is a way to have both.

  • Impact Economics is founded upon Inclusive Capitalism and it:
  • Helps business leaders delivery the highest and most sustainable corporate profits while creating increased positive impact for their communities and the environment
  • Provides ALL other community stakeholders with a seat at the economic table
  • Drives "wins" for each stakeholder, however when one "wins", they all "win" because in today's world win-lose is actually lose-lose
  • Increases economic vibrancy throughout all segments of a community
  • Empowers ALL community residents to participate in and personally benefit from the creation of an inclusive sustainable future
  • Embraces Impact Entrepreneurship, Impact Investing, and Impact Measurement
  • Removes capital flow choke points
  • Is self-funding
  • Helps fund the attainment of the SDGs
  • Uses business and economics to fight poverty
Once it reaches a global scale, Impact Economics has been designed to be the catalyst for following annual impact:
  • Generating over $2 Billion each year to help fund and expand Impact Studies (consequential learning) and SDG studies in Colleges and Universities
  • Contributing over $600,000,000 to community-based Impact Investment funds
  • Teaching 2,500,000 people Impact related studies
  • Launching 2,000 community built, Impact focused innovations purposed to help attain one or more of the SDG's
  • Helping 500,000 businesses embrace and benefit from Leadership and Management through the lens of Profit and Purpose
Headquartered in Charleston, SC, and after two successful 5-year pilots, we are now rolling out our model across the world. In order to create the biggest possible "In Place" impact, we have designed a Certification model that aligns with the thesis of "Make A Profit, While Making a Difference". Our father is still our role model and is still very much leading the charge. If you want to read more about him you can visit his LinkedIn profile, or this recent article on him "The Person Who May Have Improved Capitalism". Kind regards, Emily, Alexander, and Olivia Williams.

Purpose

Our purpose is to empower over 6,000 people with the knowledge, tools, information, and contacts they require to help their communities become economically, socially, and environmentally sustainable for ALL of their residents.

By using a new form of community centric economics, founded upon inclusive capitalism, Impact Economics includes every community stakeholder in a circular economy that raises economic vibrancy across all socio-economic segments.

For the past 60 years, the majority of any focus has been on fixing the effects of poverty and exclusion, as opposed to the root cause. After a two-year global study, In Place Impact found the root cause to be lack of economic vibrancy and as such, its purpose is to use Impact Economics to increase economic vibrancy, thereby fixing the cause, and in time, eradicating the effects.

“Empowered inclusion equates to greater resiliency, and greater resiliency equates to a sustainable future”

Communities must focus on providing circular systems that include all stakeholders, and where anyone can participate in and personally benefit from the creation of a sustainable future.
