Everyone wants AI budget, but nobody can prove ROI. I'm approving millions without the same rigor I demand for any other capital allocation.

The data reveals a costly disconnect: AI spending is accelerating, while tangible returns are lagging. Capital continues to flow into a model that systematically underdelivers.

"Our Story…

…began with a perspective forged from two distinct worlds. As transformation consultants, we witnessed millions invested in AI initiatives driven more by hype than by evidence. As founders of venture-backed startups, we experienced firsthand what it means to live with the consequences of every high-stakes investment.

What we saw was a costly, recurring pattern: critical investment choices being made on vendor-promises and intuition instead of company-specific data. We believed there had to be a more rigorous way. That’s why we founded Impact Prism: to bring the scientific certainty we wished we had."

Our Approach is Built on Three Core Beliefs:

1. Scientific Rigor, Not Industry Hype. The only foundation for a successful AI strategy is objective data. Our methodology is rooted in a decade of Stanford & MIT research giving you a defensible basis for every decision.

2. Pragmatism from Experience, Not Theory. We are operators, not armchair theorists. Having built and scaled companies ourselves, we provide insights that work in practice, not just on a slide.

3. European Focus, Not a US Copy-Paste. Europe's environment is unique. Our approach is calibrated to its regulatory, cultural, and operational complexities - from GDPR to the EU AI Act.
