ImpactFest is the annual flagship event of ImpactCity The Hague, a dynamic gathering where purpose meets progress and “doing good” goes hand in hand with “doing business.” Born out of a bold vision in 2016, ImpactFest has become one of Europe’s most important impact-driven events, bringing together entrepreneurs, investors, NGOs, policymakers, and thought leaders to confront the most pressing social and environmental challenges.

What’s it about?

Named one of Europe’s leading impact events, ImpactFest has evolved into a “must-attend” for changemakers looking to exchange ideas, forge partnerships, pitch to investors, and co-create solutions for global challenges.

This year’s 10th edition hosted on October 30, 2025, at the Fokker Terminal in The Hague, is themed “UNDER PRESSURE – BRACE FOR IMPACT”. It emphasizes authenticity and mission-driven innovation, offering a radically inclusive space built by and for impact-makers who value purpose over PR and collaborations grounded in moral leadership.
