About Nick Martin

I\'m Nick — educator, technologist, and social entrepreneur with 20 years of experience in education, tech for good, and social innovation. As founder and CEO of TechChange (techchange.org), I lead a team that designs hybrid courses, training programs, and convenings for organizations tackling global challenges. We\'ve trained 1M+ learners across 100+ countries for partners including WHO, the World Bank, Johnson & Johnson, CARE, and CRS. Earlier this year, my family and I relocated to Bangkok. Southeast Asia is one of the most dynamic regions in development and digital health right now — if you\'re in the region, let\'s connect. I\'m a LinkedIn Top Voice with followers, posting 6x/week about jobs, fellowships, and tools for the social impact space. In 2026, my goal is to help organizations move from one-off trainings to lasting learning communities, show how AI is transforming the way people learn together, and build bridges between Asia and the rest of the social impact world. Stay connected: impactsource.ai — The go-to for social impact, climate, and tech for good jobs. curated roles from 200+ organizations with salary data and a talent network. getkolab.ai — AI-powered co-facilitation that makes workshops and convenings more interactive.

I don\'t always hit every week, but when I do, it\'s worth it. What we do at TechChange: We help organizations scale learning and build community through high-impact hybrid experiences — cohort courses, leadership journeys, on-demand programs, and global forums. Services span instructional design, platform hosting, video production, translation, and engagement. Outside of work: Dad. Avid Birder. Surfer when I can. Formula One.
