To accelerate positive change for people and planet, we need to get the right people in the room and weave new webs of change. Impact Week brings changemakers together to mobilise capital for true social transformation.

We’ll share fresh ideas that can enable net-zero economy, ease inequalities and elevate economic and social prospects for all.

We’ll draw connections that will accelerate and scale up solutions.

And together we’ll create those ‘aha!’ moments that can speed up an organisation’s journey from theory to outcomes.

Come join us in Brussels, where surrealism reigns and every challenge is met with humour and irony!

The Week at a Glance

Impact Week is about breaking barriers and forming webs of change for more dynamic, resilient and equitable societies!

That’s why we partnered with Impact Finance Belgium, the country’s emerging impact community, and Ashoka, the world's leading social entrepreneurs network, to form new connections.​

The week will start with a grand opening, hosted by Impact Finance Belgium. Ashoka's Changemaker Summit will kick off on Tuesday and continue on Wednesday, the Belgian Impact Day. Check out their sites to learn more and see how you can join. EVPA members, we have discounts for you, just contact us.

Wednesday

The event of the day will certainly be the opening of our C Summit, the flagship gathering for corporate social investors in Europe! Centred on the coherence between business and impact strategies and the power of collective action, 

C Summit programme continues on Thursday and in the afternoon merges with the Annual Conference for some moments of genuine impact synergies (on and off the dance floor)!

Wednesday is also the EVPA Learning Day. Hungry learners among you can join two exciting courses on Investing for Impact and Corporate Social Investing. Hurry up, places are limited!
