Now in our 28th year, Net Impact has grown a grassroots, global movement of students and emerging impact leaders who want to use their skills to make a positive impact for people and planet.
Mission
Net Impact’s mission is to inspire and equip emerging leaders to build a more just and sustainable world.


Approach
Our approach focuses on engaging 435+ global chapters of next-generation leaders to connect, learn, and act on the social and environmental issues they care about most.
2020 Vision
In Net Impact’s effort to build a more just and sustainable world, we understand the importance of tackling big issues and fostering tough conversations. Our 2020/2021 theme, ‘Reimaging Capitalism’, digs deeper into the shifting and refined role business can play as a force of good. Together, we will explore topics such as alternative economic models, defining and engaging stakeholders, harnessing technology for good, transforming business education, the intersection of people, planet, and profit, and so much more.
