20 Years of Impact Hub: A Global Movement Celebrating the Future

20 Years of Impact Hub: A Global Movement Celebrating the Future

Twenty years of impact. One global movement born from a simple idea.

In 2005, a small space in London set out to redefine business – proving that entrepreneurship can serve people and the planet. Today, that spark has grown into the Impact Hub Network: over 120 locations across 65+ countries and more than 500,000 changemakers working together for a just and sustainable world.

20 Jahre Impact Hub: From one hub to a global movement

What started as a coworking space has become a worldwide ecosystem for impact entrepreneurship – where startups, corporates, and public institutions collaborate to solve social and environmental challenges.

From circular economy projects in Asia to inclusive entrepreneurship in Latin America, Impact Hub demonstrates how local action drives global change.

Looking back – and moving forward

This anniversary isn’t about nostalgia; it’s about momentum. The world’s challenges are intensifying, and innovation for impact has never been more urgent.

By 2030, the Impact Hub Network envisions a world where purpose-driven business is the norm, not the exception – making impact entrepreneurship the most transformative economic force of our time.

Shaping the next 20 years – together

Here in Zurich, we’re proud to be part of this global community – locally rooted, globally connected. Every programme, partnership, and startup we support contributes to a shared mission: proving that collaboration creates lasting change.
