SOCIAL IMPACT DAY

[Social Impact Day 2025] “Exploring Foundational Shift toward Impact Economy”

The impact economy is now undergoing a period of expansion and transformation. As climate change and social issues become more diverse and complex, the framework of the impact economy itself is evolving, with the expansion of impact investment, the development of corporate per-pass management, and changes in policy and regulation. The impact economy, once confined to a few progressive initiatives, is now becoming a transformative force that is shaking the entire market. At the same time, as initiatives accumulate, new questions and inquiries are also being raised.

Social Impact Day 2025 will capture this foundational shift and explore pathways for the next phase of the impact economy. Corporate strategies, investment practices, evaluation methods, multi-stakeholder collaboration – what is the vision and what actions should be taken now that all elements are under pressure to change?

Social Impact Day 2025 is a forum for diverse actors, including companies, start-ups, non-profit organisations, investors, governments and research institutions, to gather and think together about the future of the impact economy. Now is the time for each and every one of us, as agents of change, to start taking on the challenge of a new era.
