Who built this
Built by a founder who has raised and delivered in the real world
Impact Founder Mission is built by Julian Hall, founder and CEO of Ultra Education CIC. Julian has raised approximately £3.1M for Ultra Education since inception and has spent over a decade supporting social enterprises, charities and mission-led founders with funding, delivery and impact strategy.
This is not a generic online course or a theory-heavy assessment. It is a practical diagnostic built from direct experience navigating the funding landscape, building programmes at scale, and helping organisations develop the structure that serious funders expect.
