"ImpactInstitute demonstrated the type of leadership we can use more of – bringing people together for the conversations that matter to people and communities, ensuring a range of voices are heard and stories are told, and driving an action orientation for what’s needed next.”
Prof. Rosemary Addis AM
Managing Partner, Mondiale Impact // Enterprise Professor, Faculty of Business & Economics, University of Melbourne
"Social Impact Summit was a wonderful blend of ideas, provocation, experiences, and challenges to go further. The extent of change needed in society and the economy is substantial, but the dialogues, encouragement, and collegiality of the participants at the 2023 Summit help such change feel possible.”
Dr Katherine Trebeck
Economic Strategy Advisor
"I had a wonderful experience thank you and would certainly speak again, attend again and promote again. Thank you to the team also who made this all possible”
Dr. Elissa Farrow
Director and Adjunct Fellow About Your Transition and University of the Sunshine Coast
"Flourishing communities don’t happen by chance. To spend two days together learning and sharing at the Social Impact Summit was invaluable, well worth the investment. We met so many people who care about creating vibrant communities and were curious about not only the role of diverse groups of local people, but of Government and Corporates in making it possible.”
Emma Watton
NED, Town Teams Movement
"This is the one event that brings together the diverse stakeholders needed to collaborate and make progress on the complex issues our communities and our society faces.”
Anna Bowden
Head of Social Impact, Royal Far West
"We sponsored the Social Impact Summit because believe we’re passionate about our role in catalysing the growth of Australia’s social impact market. We couldn’t be happier with the investment of our time and resources into the top quality event that ImpactInstitute curated.”
Toby Dawson
Principal, Tomorrow Together
"Huge thank you for the opportunity to present and be part of the Impact Summit. Not only did it throw up a number of action items for me to take away, but it was just an overall uplifting and enjoyable experience”
Gavin Findlay
CEO New Zealand Food Network
"Congratulations again on the summit – it was a really fabulous event...”
Fiona Versey
Manager, Engagement, Centre for Social Justice and Inclusion, University of Technology Sydney
"Social Impact Summit is a brilliant convening of humans who care about creating positive social impact."
Pete Horsley, Founder
Remarkable
The Summit has been such a wonderful way to meet with, and be inspired by like minded community, who, on the face of it don’t have anything in common, but at the heart, seek meaningful connection and engagement to have a long lasting and positive impact. The conversations ensure each person takes away new knowledge, relationships but most of all, inspiration to keep going. I am hugely grateful to have been able to continue to return each year, and it is a highlight in my calendar.
