2021 Impact Conference livestream

about

Impact 2021

The third edition of Impact Conference gathers the audiences of two European Interreg projects - Interreg being one of the goals of the EU Cohesion Policy in the 2014-2020 period: the DelFin project, promoting social entrepreneurship in rural regions across Germany, Hungary, Croatia and Italy, and CE Responsible -Empowering Social Business in Central Europe, which connects entrepreneurs with social entrepreneurs in nine EU countries, through a developed platform.

Like everyone else, so does this year’s Impact Conference move online where we continue to share experiences about what entrepreneurial and community impact means in 2021.

Apart from the newcomers, the event welcomes all other change-makers to sprout relationships, talk about burning challenges in the new normal, and develop ideas with a purpose of creating a meaningful social impact. Hosting more than 500 impacters so far, our impact platform will continue to rely on the feedback from our strong community.

We believe Zoom fatigue is real so don't expect long panel discussions or parallel sessions. Impact 2021 will keep it short and to the point, and we restricted ourselves to four hours each day, time packed with keynote speakers, and a real opportunity to discuss social impact initiatives with entrepreneurs, impact investors and business support institutions in different contexts.
