About IMPACT T1D
Advancing Better Outcomes in Type 1 Diabetes Through Collaboration and Action
Our Vision
A world where every person living with Type 1 Diabetes has timely diagnosis, access to quality care, and the opportunity to live a healthy and fulfilling life.
Our Mission
To accelerate practical, scalable solutions that improve the lives of people living with Type 1 Diabetes through collaboration, innovation, and evidence-informed action.
Our Story
IMPACT T1D was inspired by lived experience.
The initiative was co-founded by a person living with Type 1 Diabetes who has experienced the challenges of long-term disease management and received a life-saving organ transplant, together with his wife, who became a living kidney donor.
Their journey reflects both the challenges and possibilities of modern Type 1 Diabetes care—from diagnosis and daily management to advanced therapies and transplantation.
While their experience is unique, the challenges faced by millions of people living with Type 1 Diabetes around the world are not. IMPACT T1D was created to help translate knowledge, innovation, and collaboration into practical solutions that improve lives.
IMPACT believes that real change happens when diverse minds unite with a shared purpose.
We focus on building meaningful connections, encouraging open collaboration, and turning ideas into action.
Our approach is simple—listen, co-create, and deliver impact that matters.
