Action Resources

 

Your Concepts are only as powerful as the Actions taken to bring them alive.  Sometimes, those actions require some extra help - either from Action Communities to prototype and refine your plan, or from Funders who can help finance your pilot. Take a look at these resources that help you create impact.  If you can't find what you need, email us at hello@openideo.com to let us know.

 

Action Communities:

You've met some awesome collaborators along the way, but sometimes they're busy and you need to find a few people just as passionate as you are to see things improve.  

The Hub

The Hub brings people together in co-working spaces to collaborate.  They offer office space and help you connect to a community who will help you implement your idea.
