<div class="content-intro"><h1 style="text-align: justify; line-height: 1.5;"><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Who we are</strong></span></h1> <p style="line-height: 1.5; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva, sans-serif;">Instiglio’s mission is to build public institutions that truly work for societies and the planet. We exist to unlock the potential of public institutions — not by chasing marginal gains, but by reimagining and rebuilding them from the inside out.</span></p> <p style="line-height: 1.5; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva, sans-serif;">We partner with governments and development actors (e.g., the World Bank, FCDO, Hilton Foundation) to align public funding with measurable outcomes and strengthen the systems, incentives, and capabilities that drive sustained impact. Over the past decade, we have worked in more than 30 low- and middle-income countries, helping institutions design and embed reforms that make every cent of public funding deliver public value.</span></p> <p style="line-height: 1.5; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva, sans-serif;">To scale our impact, we incubated the Government Empowerment Network (GEN) — a globally networked, AI-powered, and government-led reform accelerator designed to empower civil servants to incubate reforms that transform government institutions, strengthen service delivery, and improve citizens’ lives. GEN combines a six-month in-person reform incubator with an AI-enabled learning and collaboration platform, equipping champions to diagnose systemic challenges, design reforms, and strengthen delivery capabilities across ministries. Following a successful first cohort in Uganda with over 30 public servants from six ministries, we recently launched in Colombia, followed by Morocco later this year. In 2026, we plan to consolidate learnings and expand to at least two additional countries in 2026, while continuing to support current countries. </span></p> <h1 style="text-align: justify; line-height: 1.5;"><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Our team</strong></span></h1> <p style="text-align: justify; line-height: 1.5;"><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva, sans-serif;">A core contributing factor to the influence Instiglio has had thus far includes our collaborative, highly skilled and diverse team. We are a team of 80+ people, representing 15+ nationalities, with offices in Colombia, Kenya, Morocco, Mauritius and Uganda. Our team brings together experience from government, management consulting, multilateral institutions, and the social sector; united by a mission to help governments perform better for their people.</span></p></div><p style="line-height: 1.4; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva, sans-serif;"><strong><span data-contrast="none"><span data-ccp-parastyle="heading 1">How you will make an impact </span></span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"134245418":false,"134245529":false,"201341983":0,"335559738":0,"335559739":200,"335559740":276}"> </span></span></p> <p style="line-height: 1.4; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva, sans-serif;"><span data-contrast="none">You aspire to become a global development leader by transforming the delivery performance of governments to achieve outcomes for the most vulnerable communities where underperformance persists.
