Our Story: An ECOSystem for Transformation

IMPACT FESTIVAL was founded in 2021 with its first festival attracting 2,100 attendees. In 2022, we launched IMPACT SOLUTION, an online platform to match GreenTech companies with B2B clients; followed by the launch of our IMPACT TALK podcast with guest experts and the second Festival which welcomed 2,500 attendees. Furthermore, we co-hosted the IMPACT WEEK the IMPACT AWARD and various smaller side events such as webinars and online lectures. By constantly evolving our offerings and services, we remain committed to providing a platform for knowledge exchange and collaboration for sustainable innovation.

We Do Things Different

Creating a community-based ecosystem & support an open exchange of knowledge

The community is at the core of our business. We are always looking for innovative ways to increase collaboration between investors, start-ups, and corporates. We believe that knowledge is key to sustainable transformation. Therefore, we offer a variety of talks and workshops about sustainable transformation, which enable attendees to stay informed of the latest trends and developments in the sustainability sector.

Matching investors, start-ups and corporates

We are dedicated to creating a platform for fostering collaborations between investors, start-ups, and corporates. Our team has extensive knowledge of the GreenTech sector and is experienced in connecting global investors with start-ups & scale-ups. That way, we want to ensure the flow of monetary resources into sustainable innovation. Furthermore, we connect start-ups / scale-ups and SME’s that offer sustainable innovation with corporates that need to transform their business. That way, we ensure the implementation of solutions and support the companies to generate leads. Hence, we foster the transformation of corporates, industries and our entire economy. We strive to help all parties to reach their growth objectives and to support innovation that lead to sustainable transformation of companies and industries.
