We are the Portuguese chapter of the Impact Hub global network of nearly 25.000 entrepreneurs and innovators in 100+ locations worldwide, in 50+ countries spanning 5 continents. In 2020, over 5.000 ventures took part in one of our 200 acceleration programs globally.

In Lisbon since 2016, we have supported the start, growth and scaling of 700+ entrepreneurs, delivered 20+ innovation programs, provided a collaborative coworking space for 1000+ members, and built a wider ecosystem of diverse impact actors in key areas including female entrepreneurship, diversity and inclusion, and circularity.

Impact Hub Lisbon was founded and our first space was set up in a small ground floor in Principe Real.

2016

We moved to Alcântara, renovating an old warehouse to accommodate 80+ members and provide a creative event space for 150+ people.

2017

In partnership with Fudação Ageas, we launched Escola de Impacto, our first capacity building program to enhance employability through entrepreneurial skills.

2018

A new board of directors joined Impact Hub Lisbon, we partnered with Coca-Cola to support 260 female entrepreneurs and were invited to join 2 European consortiums.

2019

The pandemic forced us to rethink our business and we decided to focus on designing entrepreneurship support programs. We pivoted to a capacity building & consultancy business model and delivered 7 online programs, providing support to 250+ people starting their impact project.

2020

We moved to a new location in Baixa, grew the team and delivered 9 capacity building programs, addressing female entrepreneurship, inclusion and circularity.
