Online - The government perspective: What nonprofits and funders need to do differently to get adoption
@
Would government adopt your solution if it worked, was rigorously tested, cost-effective and with strong evidence?
Most would assume yes. Government officials told us: not necessarily. Having a strong solution is not enough.
This webinar will unpack the findings of Spring Impact's Scaling with Government report, produced in partnership with Instiglio and LGT Venture Philanthropy, to surface how governments really assess risk, make decisions, and choose when (and whether) to institutionalise change.
We’ll be joined by government representatives, nonprofit leaders, and funders who’ve navigated this journey first-hand to explore: - The institutional conditions that need to align, and how to be ready when they do - What it takes to be the kind of partner governments can say yes to - How shifting from "how can government scale our model?" to "what problem is government trying to solve?" unlocks scale - How funders can absorb risk and open doors, and what patient, flexible capital looks like in practice
