Building a $5B Moonshot: lessons, mistakes, and trade-offs from scaling direct cash transfers

In a sector often paralyzed by incrementalism, GiveDirectly is testing an audacious hypothesis: can direct cash transfers end extreme poverty at national scale? Join GiveDirectly’s President Nick Allardice as he shares hard-won lessons from operationalizing their ambitious bets. Nick will dig into the technical details of what it actually takes to go from proven concept to massive delivery, drawing on lessons from nearly $1B in transfers already delivered. Whether you're a charity founder thinking about scale, a researcher evaluating evidence, or wrestling with career decisions about which problems warrant your attention, this talk argues that moral ambition and operational realism must coexist. Nick Allardice is President and CEO of GiveDirectly, which has delivered over $825 million in unconditional cash transfers to 1.6 million people living in extreme poverty. Before joining GiveDirectly, Nick spent a decade leading Change.org, scaling the platform to over 400 million users across 20 countries.
