About us

ImpulsoGov is a pioneering non-profit organization dedicated to strengthening public healthcare systems through data and technology.

Founded in 2019, ImpulsoGov began by supporting public health services during the Covid-19 pandemic and has since scaled its work nationwide. Today, we partner with governments in more than 410 cities, supporting the world’s largest public healthcare system with data-driven solutions that improve access, quality, and coordination of care.

Our mission is to help build a preventive and proactive health system, equipping health teams with intelligent data and accessible technology so they can identify risks early, act in time, and ensure that no one suffers or dies from preventable causes — regardless of where they live or how much they earn.

As a non-profit organization, ImpulsoGov brings technology, data science, and evidence-based practices into the public sphere, transforming public health data into actionable insights and empowering frontline professionals across both physical and mental health services.
