In this episode, Kat Woods joins us to talk about impact for charities over time and how to create incubation ecosystems and angel ecosystems for them.

Kat is the co-founder of several entrepreneurial ecosystems in effective altruism. Effective altruism (EA) is a research field and practical community that looks for the best ways to help others, and put them into practice. It is about prioritizing our efforts when doing good, so we can help others as much as we can.

We dive deep into the journey all the way from the start of EA where there is no incubation to this new reality where there is charity entrepreneurship incubating fantastic ideas for possible impact in the world.

We also talk about how we can create networks of people and capital to allocate it towards impactful things in the world, what Kat means by passive income and the AI Safety community.

If you want to make a positive impact in the world, dive in! You will learn how to make a difference by setting up passively-impactful projects that continue to positively affect the world even when you’ve moved on to other things.
