Out with the Laundry List: The Art of Impact Reporting in Science, Tech and Healthcare
Impact reports are no longer optional — they are essential. From universities and research institutes to healthcare and industry, organisations worldwide are now required to demonstrate not just what they do, but why it matters. Yet too often, impact reporting devolves into laundry lists of activities, failing to convey real outcomes or lasting value.
Our latest whitepaper explores how institutions can move beyond box-ticking exercises to craft impact reports that are credible, strategic and meaningful.
In the whitepaper, we cover:
- The difference between an annual report and an impact report.
- Global requirements and guidelines for impact reporting (UK, Singapore, Hong Kong, US, Australia).
- The SHARE Framework (Streamlined, Holistic, Authentic, Responsible, Educational) — a practical model to guide reporting.
- How effective impact reporting strengthens reputation, credibility and stakeholder trust.
- Why impact reports are as much about future positioning as they are about past performance.
Whether you are a university leader, research institute or innovation-driven company, your ability to demonstrate impact directly shapes how funders, regulators and partners perceive you. This whitepaper equips you with the tools to shift from listing activities to telling a story of real-world outcomes.
