WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND OUR EMA IMPACT SUMMIT
null

IMPACT is not about the “what if” of a green economy, it is about showing the world that the green economy is here, and it is working. With a focus on environmental innovations, corporate responsibility, green jobs, and activism, IMPACT is a loudspeaker for solutions. The Summit is where luminaries, innovators, and influencers come together to not only educate and inspire but create actionable plans to save our planet and improve our economy.

The two-day Summit includes keynote speeches, one-on-one discussions with leaders in entertainment, businesses, and tech, panel discussions, breakout sessions, networking events, and more. IMPACT also includes our popular EMA Future Innovator of the Year challenge: a Shark Tank-like competition that awards the winning innovation with a $50,000 grant.

Have an idea that could help save our planet? You’re not alone. Join others with a shared passion for making a difference for our environment at the EMA IMPACT Summit this May.

The Future Innovator of the Year Challenge

Changing the world starts with an idea. For this reason, EMA launched its Future Innovator of the Year Challenge to invite the brightest minds of tomorrow to solve our planet’s most pressing issues of today.

The contest receives hundreds of applications from entrepreneurs and students across the country. From those, six finalists are chosen to compete at IMPACT.

The winning innovation, which will be announced by our panel of experts on the second day of IMPACT, receives a fifty-thousand-dollar grant. The winner will also enjoy a year of mentorship by our Senior Impact Advisory Board.
