Impact Startup Fest

As part of Startup Fest Europe, the city of The Hague will host Impact Startup Fest (#ImpactSF17) on the 26th of September.

Impact Startup Fest will focus entirely on impact startups and scaleups that are working on innovations that make the world a better place. Innovations that tackle social and global challenges take center stage.

National and international matchmaking is at the core of the event. The festival provides a creative environment in which to build bonds and bridges, establish new connections, and create new opportunities to accelerate your business. The entire day is filled with an exciting programme with inspirational speakers, uplifting demos, pitch sessions and useful matchmaking opportunities between (tech) start-ups, investors, international organisations, developers and corporates. A special track called Emerging Markets will focus on the opportunities for entrepreneurship, innovation and impact investing.
