About This Event

In the world of impact, Asia is often seen as a place to support — not as a region to learn from. But what if we flipped the perspective?

In this Impact Monday, Kurt Peleman Director Global Markets at AVPN, Asia's leading impact network, invites us to look differently at Asia’s fast-evolving impact landscape — not with a donor gaze, but with curiosity and humility. What does it mean when capital collaborates across sectors, when family offices lead on climate, or when community-led innovation quietly shapes entire regions?

From Korea to Kerala, from Jakarta to Japan, impact in Asia moves at the intersection of urgency, complexity, and deep relationality. And that might be exactly what Europe needs more of right now.

Expect a thought-provoking session about decentralised leadership, scarcity as a driver for innovation, trust-based funding, and the quiet power of communities.

Bring your questions. Bring your assumptions — and be ready to unlearn them..
