Reporting on what really matters
By listening to everyone's words, in a simple and non-simplifying way.
An adventure that has been underway since 2014.
The Kimso adventure began in 2014 with a clear ambition: to put impact at the heart of the strategy of social purpose organizations.
Initially an expert in social impact assessment methodologies, Kimso then developed consulting, training and a digital platform dedicated to impact management.
Today, the support of more than 350 actors — associations, foundations, companies, public actors and NGOs — of all sizes and from all sectors feeds an approach that combines scientific rigor, collective intelligence and concrete solutions.
Our ambition remains unchanged: to help organizations better understand the effects of their actions to sustainably strengthen their social impact.
Our Purpose
Three pillars to bring the impact to life.
A purpose built around listening, transmission and long-term support.
Transmitting and equipping
To pass on our knowledge and equip organizations to make them autonomous in their impact assessment process.
Supporting over the long term
Supporting our clients over the long term to drive impact-driven change.
The team
Complementary expertise, a common ambition.
In France and abroad, a team with complementary expertise (social sciences, quantitative methods, consulting) to evaluate the effects of your actions and sustainably strengthen your impact.

Testimonial
“Your presentation to the members of the steering committee helped convince the leadership to submit a new application for a second phase with the AFD. When we met the Ambassador of Benin, we passed it on to him. He told us he would support us with the Beninese Ministry of Culture to back our pending funding request, highlighting in particular “the seriousness of the project and its impact”. Your evaluation also motivated us internally to set up our own evaluation.
