At Impact Engine, we believe that some of the most talented entrepreneurs today are launching companies that combine the potential for financial return with social impact. Since our founding in 2012, we have supported impact entrepreneurs through an ever-growing network of mentors and investors who were inspired by these entrepreneurs and committed to helping them launch their businesses successfully. Over the past three years, these companies have shown that profit and purpose can go hand in hand, and they have in turn helped us to demonstrate the power and potential of impact investing.

One of the great and distinguishing features of 1871 is that we’re one of only nine North American Google for Entrepreneurs hubs. What this means is that we have a special and ongoing relationship with Google that creates all sorts of opportunities for our members throughout the year. One of the key aspects of this relationship is Google Demo Day, in which each hub sends one company to Palo Alto to pitch several hundred investors and compete against startups from around the nation.
