Last week, the Euclid Network Impact Summit 2026 brought together social innovators, policymakers, funders, researchers, and practitioners in Amsterdam for two inspiring days of dialogue, collaboration, and shared learning. The Summit created a vibrant space for the social enterprise community to connect across sectors and geographies, exchange ideas, and strengthen the partnerships needed to drive meaningful impact across Europe and beyond.
Throughout the event, participants explored some of the most pressing topics shaping the future of the social economy. Sessions covered themes such as impact measurement and management, social procurement, AI and digital transformation, social finance, social innovation ecosystems, and EU policy developments. Across these discussions, one message stood out clearly: addressing today’s complex societal challenges requires collaboration, experimentation, and a commitment to learning from one another.
The programme featured a diverse range of perspectives, from grassroots social entrepreneurs and ecosystem builders to institutional partners and policy leaders. These voices helped highlight both the opportunities and the barriers facing the sector today. Participants shared practical experiences, innovative approaches, and insights on how social innovation can scale while remaining grounded in values such as equity, inclusion, and sustainability.
Beyond the sessions, the Summit also offered many moments for meaningful connection. Informal conversations, networking opportunities, and shared meals allowed participants to deepen relationships and explore new collaborations. These interactions reminded us that the strength of the social economy lies not only in individual initiatives but also in the networks and ecosystems that enable them to thrive.
We want to thank everyone who joined us last week – our speakers, partners, members, volunteers, and participants – for sharing your knowledge, perspectives, and enthusiasm. Your engagement is what made the Summit such a dynamic and meaningful gathering.
While the event itself has come to an end, the conversations and connections sparked last week will continue to shape our work moving forward. At Euclid Network, we remain committed to fostering collaboration across the social economy ecosystem and creating spaces where ideas can grow into action.
Thank you for being part of this journey with us.
