Stage 2: Test Solutions | Stanford Impact Labs

Stanford University

Stage 2: Test Solutions is one of three levels of funding Stanford Impact Labs awards to solutions-focused research teams working in partnership to solve social problems. Stage 2 investments provide flexible funding for teams to develop and test solutions in collaboration with community, industry, or government partners. Maybe this means launching a pilot program or deploying an innovative, data-driven approach to a stubborn problem from within a partner nonprofit organization. Teams often use the funds to hire professional staff, fund data collection, or support partner costs.
