Event Description
The 2017 Annual Conference revolved around the year’s theme, The Sharing Society. The event was an invitation to delve into innovative solutions to some of society’s biggest challenges, share sustainable ideas and dare to dream big. We had the opportunity to use our specialised knowledge, unique talents and entrepreneurial spirit to think about the bigger picture and our role in accelerating positive change – all of this while enjoying some delicious refreshments, networking and having fun. And what better place to host this inspiring event than Impact Hub Amsterdam: creative spaces, sustainable design and collaborative vibe?
