Impact Builder Connect: Berlin

​A community gathering for impact builders in a profit-driven world.

​Building with impact at the core can feel like you're in a constant battle with a system that is working against you.

​​Impact is hard to measure, accelerators are built for hyper-growth, scale-at-all-costs startups, and it's rare to find others who truly get it.

​​This session brings together people who understand these challenges because they're living them too.

​​People who know that changing systems requires more than good ideas. It requires new approaches to building impact businesses and programs, whether it be funding, measuring success, or building partnerships for sustainable growth.

​​Finding your people as an impact builder is harder than it should be.

​​We're hoping to change that.

​​What to expect

​​This isn't a networking event or panel discussion. It's a community gathering intentionally designed to spark meaningful conversations that help nourish your work (and hopefully, soul).

​​Throughout the evening, you'll:

• ​​Explore conversations on shared challenges, goals, inspiration, and experiences

• ​​Connect with small groups of changemakers navigating similar impact work

​​No pitches. No presentations. Just honest conversations and connections shaped by you and your fellow impact builders.

• ​Doors open - 6:30pm

• ​Welcome - 7:00pm

• ​Closing - 9:00pm

• ​Feel free to stay to and mingle till doors close at 9:30pm

​​Who should join

​​This space is specifically designed for:

• ​​Founders, operators, and team members in the impact space

• ​​People working on businesses where impact is core, not an add-on

• ​​Anyone navigating the unique challenges of building for profit and purpose

​​If that's you, we hope you'll join us.

​About our special co-host: Apocalypse Pre-Drinks

​For our first-ever Berlin event, we are thrilled to partner up with the team at Apocalypse Pre-Drinks (APD). In their own words:

​Apocalypse Pre-Drinks is an event series created as “a support group for citizens living under late-stage capitalism.” Founded in early 2025, the goal of APD is to create a space to reimagine how we live, work, and take care of each other. Because it’s not the end of the world, just the end of an era.

​Events take place mostly in Berlin, Germany, but are also being organised in other cities around the world. To learn more about Apocalypse Pre-Drinks, or to get in contact about collaborating: apocalypsepredrinks.org.
