About Impact Asia Pacific

Inspired by leading global impact investors, Impact Asia Pacific P/L (IAP) was founded in 2014 – intent on mobilising community and capital for good. This led to the successful and acclaimed launch in November 2015 of the Impact Investment Summit Asia Pacific. The inaugural, content-rich Summit program featured 6 international speakers, backed by 8 Sponsor and 13 Supporting Organisations, and attracted an influential audience of 280 impact ‘Summiteers’ in Sydney.

By 2019 the Summit had grown to a community gathering of 450 Summiteers with 23 International Speakers, 15 Sponsors/partners and 18 Supporting Organisations – all coming together to connect, catalyse and accelerate the impact investment ecosystem at what had grown into a globally recognised impact event.

2019 also marked the highly successful launch (in November) of IAP’s ImpactConnect Funds Day. The first interactive impact investing forum where 6 leading impact funds and 100 qualified investors meet to change their world. In 2020 the team delivered a series of well-received online Impact Wisdom Circles.

The 2021 Impact Investment Summit A/P will be convened at the Sydney International Convention Centre (ICC) on 13 and 14 October. In addition, two more specifically focused ImpactConnect Funds Day events are on the radar. The first in May, as a feature of our new brand in the making, Gender Lens Investing Summit; the second in October prior to our flagship Summit. Plans are also under way to build on the momentum of our virtual Wisdom Circles, develop and deliver online content for the community.

IAP Belief

As a team, we are driven by a steadfast belief in the possibility of a transformed economy. One of equity in which everyone benefits.

Purpose

Be the leaders in developing and delivering motivating experiences for impact – our focus is on the experience in everything we do. Engaging people on a transforming journey of discovery, learning and action.

Promise

Inspire people to be more deeply connected, collaborative and part of a committed collective around three imperatives:

WISDOM COURAGE ACTION.
