2018 BridgeBuilder Challenge to Begin May 1!

Picture
The first annual BridgeBuilder Challenge blew past our expectations, drawing in more than 650 participants and delivering five amazing Top Ideas. This year's BridgeBuilder Challenge is set to begin on May 1, 2018. After that date, participants will be able to create and refine their idea using OpenIDEO's open innovation platform.  We encourage participants to enter the Challenge as soon as possible—the more time you have to use the platform, the more you can benefit from the feedback and connections the community has to offer.

The 2017 Top Ideas are already implementing their projects and have been drawing attention. The March print issue of the Chronicle of Philanthropy includes a feature article on the BridgeBuilder Challenge, titled Foundation Uses Radical Transparency in Grant Making. "I wanted to open up our windows and get some fresh air into our own thinking and learning at the foundation," said GHR CEO Amy Goldman for the Chronicle. "Seeing all of these ideas has really been an opportunity to do that." Read the full story (PDF).

If you're interested in what it's like to be a BridgeBuilder Top Idea, check out the new video below, which features the 2017 cohort's experience as they convened in Rome this fall.
