The Impact Exchange
An infrastructure and connection platform for ventures with measurable social or environmental impact
The first entrepreneurial congress of the Impact Exchange opened at the President's Residence: an initiative that connects vision with Zionist realisation. Theodor Herzl, the great entrepreneur who founded the State of Israel, showed that Zionism is the ability to turn an idea into a nation. The Impact Exchange continues that legacy and translates the Zionist vision of the 21st century into impact entrepreneurship, innovation and global partnership, with the aim of making Israel a global impact power.
Unlike a traditional stock exchange, where shares are traded purely for financial profit, the Impact Exchange serves as an infrastructure and connection platform for ventures with measurable social or environmental impact.
How does the Impact Exchange work?
- Cross-sector connection: the platform links impact entrepreneurs with private and institutional investors, businesses, academia, local authorities and government ministries.
- Standards and measurement: the exchange develops uniform standards for measuring each venture's impact, creating transparency and confidence for investors and purchasing bodies.
- Scale: helping social and technological ventures embed into large public and business systems and expand into markets in Israel and the Middle East.
