Circular ecosystem | Only 9 percent of the global economy is currently circular, while adopting circular principles now could bring Europe net benefits of EUR 1,8 trillion and carbon emission reductions of 450 million tonnes by 2030. That is why Impact Hub the Netherlands hosts events, builds communities, and runs acceleration programmes around circularity.

About us | What we do
What we do
As part of the rapidly growing global Impact Hub network — spanning over 100 cities and bringing together more than 300,000 impact makers from Soweto to London — we’re on a mission to build a new economy. One that works for everyone, where impact is the standard, rooted in regenerative systems and sustainable practices.
“There were some people that had good intentions and they created the plastic bag and they started burning fossil fuels and they came up with a car. These weren’t monsters; they were inventors that in that specific time made a lot of sense, and now it’s time to rethink that.” – Cyrill Gutsch, CEO of Parley for the Oceans.
The work we do
Our passionate entrepreneurial team has already helped more than 4000 companies in the Netherlands to become more sustainable and make more impact.
How we do it
Our work is built on an ecosystem approach, because the complex challenges our society faces can’t be tackled in isolation. They demand collaboration.
We’ve established four key ecosystems — Food, Circularity, Inclusion, and Fashion.
These focus areas were chosen based on their significance in our local and regional context, the innovative impact entrepreneurs within our community, and their contribution to advancing multiple SDGs. As we advocate for a new economy rooted in regenerative systems and sustainable practices, it’s crucial to move beyond utilitarian and transactional networks and master the art of cultivating healthy social ecosystems.
Who we work with
Startups, SMEs, and organizations across the Netherlands and beyond.
