Across the world, Impact Week has become a defining moment for the impact investing community, a time when investors, philanthropists, and changemakers come together to align capital with purpose and accelerate sustainable solutions.
In Africa, this global momentum takes on a uniquely vibrant form through the AVPA Impact Safari 2025, a journey through Africa’s growing community of impact innovators, investors, and enablers, all working to bridge capital and catalyse change.
Hosted by AVPA impact partners, these events encourage learning, connection, and collaboration and feature high-level dialogues, immersive sessions, innovation showcases, and case studies that bring impact to life.
From blended finance to catalytic capital, climate resilience to tech for inclusion, the Impact Safari invites participants to experience the 2025 AVPA conference, preceding and succeeding immersive events designed to complement and deepen the conference theme.
