Impact Next
Are you a purpose-driven founder seeking early-stage investment and a supportive ecosystem? Look no further!
WHAT WE OFFER
Impact Next is an investment readiness programme for impact-driven startups and organisations that are ready to grow.
It is designed for teams that already have a validated product or service, some initial traction, and a clear understanding of the problem they are solving.
The focus of the programme is to help them take the next step by strengthening their business, refining their strategy, and preparing for investment or partnerships.
Over the course of one intensive month, participants work closely with experienced founders, investors, and ecosystem experts. The programme is hands-on and practical, with a strong focus on developing real outputs that can be used beyond the programme itself.
Teams will work on:
- clarifying their value proposition and positioning
- building a credible growth strategy
- aligning their impact with a sustainable business model
- preparing an investment deck
- improving how they communicate their story to investors and partners
Throughout the programme, participants receive targeted feedback and mentoring, helping them identify gaps, challenge assumptions, and make better decisions as they grow.
The programme concludes with a Demo Day, where selected teams present their ventures to investors, corporate partners, and other key stakeholders. This creates concrete opportunities for follow-up conversations, partnerships, and potential investment.
Impact Next is the third stage of the Impact Hub Slovenia Impact Pathway, supporting the most promising ventures as they move from early traction to investment-ready growth.
