Independent (Chieh Pan)

When I saw social workers struggling with managing in-kind donations, the idea of helping the helpers was born: 'In-Kind.' Together with a colleague and nonprofit organizations, we are co-creating a solution to streamline this process. 'In-Kind' is an end-to-end solution aimed at reducing manual effort, freeing up more time for NPOs to focus on what truly matters, enabling better resource allocation, revitalizing the image of the social sector, and empowering a sharing economy ecosystem. By using my skills and experience in customer and supplier relationship management, stakeholder management, as well as project and product management, gained across industries such as media, furniture, and technology, I want to contribute to strengthening and supporting the organizations that are making a difference. My passion for social innovation drives me, and I am deeply motivated to give back to the social sector, which has been a source of support for me during challenging times. I truly believe that everyone has the ability to contribute. I envision a future where NPOs, regardless of their size, have access to technology that empowers them, with digital tools fully integrated into their work to enhance their impact.
