What an amazing day it was at ImpactFest 2025! It was truly inspiring to see so many impact makers in one place – all with one common goal: create meaningful change. 💪
That’s exactly why we were so excited to be there. Over the past five years, we’ve supported more than 250 ventures – 50% of which are impact-focused. All this is built around one purpose: successful mentorship.
Our Backs Jonathan Talbott and Hans Kamphuis hosted a Meetup on this topic, discussing how to get the most out of your mentors. With an audience of mentors, founders and a few of our Backs, it sparked some interesting discussions around questions such as: What is a mentor really good for?
Our Back Edwin van der Heide also joined several impact makers for the Expert Sessions. Where he had one-on-one conversations about how mentorship can help them grow.
Throughout the day, our team and Backs connected with many impact makers. We’re excited to keep the conversation going and explore how we can help each other move forward!
A big thank-you to ImpactCity, in particular Asceline Groot and Mariken Gaanderse, for organizing such an inspirational ImpactFest! 🥂
