NORDIC IMPACT BUSINESS SUMMIT IN 2019

20 June 2019 the first summit ever took place in the Old Stock Exchange building in Copenhagen.

50 promising Nordic impact companies were matched with potential investors and market experts from all over the world.

The companies were carefully selected by independent impact curators based on a thorough analysis looking at the product, technology, business model, impact data, team, scalability etc. We used the ‘Impact Business Score System’ method and tool we have invented.

The summit was neither a trade show, a conference or a pitch contest.

It was a day of 100 round tables with room for impact companies to be matched with approx. 150 ambitious investors and thoughtful business developers to improve their business and solutions for a better world.

In the end of the day we also presented the first Nordic market analysis of impact investing – ever.
