Overview

Moonshot Global LLC (Moonshot) is a woman-owned, mission-driven global advisory services and research firm that helps organizations maximize their social impact. Our high-performing impact-forward teams deliver value to private, public, and civic actors on innovative finance, innovation-led development, and trade and investment. We work through collaborative partnerships, use data and evidence to understand what is working and what isn’t, and design and operationalize strategies that move things forward. We co-create solutions with relevant stakeholders to address diverse and complex challenges and catalyze systems change.

Founded in 2014, we have core capabilities in the areas of evidence and impact; learning; strategy and engagement; and sustainable investment advisory. We are headquartered in Washington DC, USA, and have team members located in Germany, Kenya, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Spain, and Timor-Leste. We keep our core team small and partner with those with complementary expertise. 

We serve a diverse client base—governments, bilateral and multilateral donors, development finance institutions, foundations, civil society and nongovernmental organizations, private sector firms, including small and growing businesses. We bring global experience in 40+ countries, including those affected by conflict. We specialize in impact strategy, measurement, management, and verification; partnerships strategy and execution; and digital solutions design and roll out to support innovative finance (blended finance and impact investing), open innovation, sustainability, and trade and foreign direct investment.

We bring sectoral experience in agriculture, democracy/governance, climate change mitigation and adaptation, education, energy, health, infrastructure, and technology. We have implemented projects that focus on the cross-cutting issues of data protection and privacy, displaced communities, human trafficking, financial inclusion, gender and inclusivity. 

Our three flagship products—portfolio impact strategy, third party impact performance verification, and constituent feedback—help clients harness data and knowledge to inform strategy and improve results.
