Impact Weekend is a weekend-long experience to explore the world of social entrepreneurship and to network with industry professionals. It is designed as a workshop in which participants develop new social enterprise models under the careful guidance of experienced mentors with entrepreneurship backgrounds and ultimately present them in front of a jury.

Seven groups presented their final pitches in front of the jury. Heroes of Light, an app to motivate the volunteer workforce using gamification won the challenge! This idea has the potential to help thousands of NGOs around the world to engage and commit more people into social issues. A great idea with an excellent team, well done! Congratulations to TelSell, Bring it out, NuCooked, Health Village, Kala and Yes!, you did an amazing job!

The winning team received the following prizes:
- direct entry to Venture Lab (IE Business School´s start-up incubator)
- up to 7 coaching sessions with Emzingo
- 3 months of Impact HUB 40 Membership
- Entry tickets to Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid game
