Launching a Partnership Matching Service for Nonprofits

While many in the development space have talked about the potential, value, and – in some cases – need for more mergers and acquisitions in the non-profit space, recent events have made it clear: now is the time. That’s why the teams at Accountability Lab, Development Gateway: An IREX Venture and Digital Public, partnered up: develop both a new toolkit, a partnership matching service, and professional support infrastructure aimed at assisting the organizations facing this challenge. While there’s no “one” name or type of transition that captures the reorganizing work ahead – from partnerships to mergers to legacy planning, our toolkit aims to de-mystify the processes and work that organizations will need to do to prepare for next steps.
