RSM Impact Summit 2025

This November, the very first RSM Impact Summit takes the stage at Erasmus University! Organized by students, this high-energy gathering is designed to inspire, connect, and empower the next generation of changemakers. From mission-driven founders and investors to academics and accelerators, the summit is where bold ideas meet the capital and community needed to make them thrive.

Event Overview: Expect an action-packed program filled with insights, collaboration, and inspiration:

✨ Keynote | From Vision to Venture – Hear from a successful social entrepreneur on turning ideas into impact, raising capital, and overcoming challenges.

✨ Panel | What Makes a Startup Truly Impactful? – A candid discussion with founders, investors, accelerators, and university leaders.

✨ Hands-on Workshops – Choose your track: pitching for impact, defining impact in investing, or co-creating the Erasmus impact ecosystem.

✨ Startup Pitches – Watch 8–10 mission-driven startups pitch their bold solutions to pressing challenges, and vote for your favorite to win the Audience Choice Award.

Whether you’re a student, entrepreneur, investor, or simply curious about how purpose meets capital, this is your opportunity to connect with a community shaping a more inclusive and sustainable future.
