Past Clients Testimonials
GOODIE
“Impetus did a great job – they took the time to understand the brief plus what we were trying to solve and then came up with real-world solutions that can be applied and implemented within our organisation. The presentation skills were excellent and the students really took the time to ask the right kind of questions before brainstorming possible solutions.”

CREPES FOR CHANGE
“I found Impetus to be very insightful and sufficiently broken down, as they provided a large amount of knowledge yet explained it in understandable sections and comprehensive data. I would recommend this to other not-for-profit organisations as it was thorough and also personable. I feel comfortable approaching them for more information and advice in the future.”
Soul Hub
"Impetus were professional, creative, and incredibly easy to work with. Their report was insightful, practical, and helped spark an important conversation within our organisation around Social Enterprise. It aligned our board and management team, paving the way for future initiatives. We’re grateful for their patience and expertise."
