Who We Are We are a studio for impact creators and innovators. Launched from within the Business+Impact Initiative in 2019, our mission is to bring impactful ideas to life using business and design tools along with research expertise from our university community. Along the way, we hope to create a generation of architects able to work with communities to address pressing problems. Our team’s unique blend of expertise powers this work, with experience in design innovation, behavioral science, social entrepreneurship, social work, tech, and higher education, and digital design and technical skills.

+Impact Design Lab In the studio’s co-curricular +Impact Design Lab we develop, nurture, and launch early-stage prototypes. Business+Impact and the +Impact Studio are honored to partner with Applebaum Family Philanthropy in creating powerful student experiences through the Impact Design Lab. The Lab includes an interdisciplinary Applebaum Impact Design Fellowship, a Founders Program for student social innovators, and an Applebaum Impact Design Internship for students pursuing studio-related work during the summer. Applebaum Innovator-in-Residence Moses Lee, along with our studio faculty and staff, provide coaching for our Fellows, Founders, and Interns. Our Founders Program is where impact-driven student innovators come together to nurture and launch their big ideas to change the world.
