Designing for Impact: A Workshop for Purpose-Led Start-Ups

Join us on 13 November with Carmen Paputa-Dutu (Firstport) for a hands-on workshop demystifying impact planning. Perfect for social enterprises, third sector organisations, and anyone eager to make a difference. Learn simple tools to define success and stay focused on real impact.

This session will demystify complex ideas like “logic models” and turn them into accessible, practical tools for your organisation. You’ll learn how to clearly map your vision, define your pathway to success, and evaluate what’s working — all while staying true to your purpose and avoiding scope creep. As more businesses embrace ethical and purpose-led approaches, this workshop offers the clarity and confidence to communicate your impact effectively and grow sustainably.

Carmen Paputa-Dutu is User Experience and Impact Manager at Firstport - Scotland’s national agency for social enterprise start-up, funding and growth. Carmen brings a wealth of experience in service design, impact evaluation, and innovation, drawing on her work leading Firstport’s Social Innovation Challenge and supporting human-centred digital health projects. She is passionate about creative resilience and sustainability, she’s the perfect guide to help you turn purpose into measurable change.
