OUR WORK
CONNECTING ROTARIANS WITH V/IP HYBRID MEETINGS
Emerging from COVID-19 lockdowns, Rotary clubs have the opportunity to continue to make meetings accessible both to vulnerable club members, as well as to guests and new potential members, through virtual/in-person, hybrid meetings. TGIG shows how easily any club can host a V/IP hybrid meeting.
CONNECTING ROTARIANS WITH COMPELLING CLUB PRESENTATIONS - Introducing R-Speaks
TGIG is exploring Rotary Members and Club interest in a TED-like repository of the best club presentations from awe-inspiring speakers, with topics related to Rotary's Seven Areas of Focus and the Rotary Four-Way-Test.
Connecting Rotarians with High-Impact VR Experiences
TGIG sparked the world's largest co-located, simultaneous VR viewing experience that took place at the 2017 Annual Rotarian Convention in Atlanta, Georgia. The VR piece, One Small Act, debuted with over 3,000 Rotarians immersed in this emotional experience, addressing polio and peace, with Google cardboards and their smartphones.
Connecting Rotarians through Rotary Families with Young Children
TGIG is partnering with the Silicon Valley startup company, Kibeam (formerly Kinoo), funded initially by Rotarians, and founded by a TGIG Rotarian. Kibeam connects loving family adults with their younger children, via enhanced, curated video play and learning.
About the Global Impact Group
In 2018, four Rotarians, with passion to make a social impact in the world, saw an opportunity to bring advanced technology to Rotary, in support of Rotary's future and the important role Rotary Members have at their Districts and Clubs.
Our leadership team brings decades of entrepreneurial and technology experience to address the greatest challenges in our world.
