YPFP is excited to work with impACT, a global network that seeks to foster social entrepreneurship and assist start-ups, especially in fragile contexts and among marginalized communities, to create change and work for social justice.
Born in Afghanistan, impACT invites new and established actors worldwide to gain insights, extend networks and get inspired through events that connect the local start-up ecosystem.
After events in cities across the world, we're excited to bring this movement to New York City. Join us for an evening of Power Talks, a panel focusing on immigrant entrepreneurs, and a workshop for participants to develop their entrepreneurial skills.
Those who attend will come away with better knowledge, resources, networks, and – most of all – the inspiration to create change and drive social impact.
