The Hague – The city of impact

The Hague is more than the political heart of the Netherlands; it’s a city where global -impact makers are empowered to create a safer, fairer and more just world. Known as the ‘City of Peace and Justice’, The Hague hosts a unique ecosystem of international organizations, NGOs, and innovative enterprises committed to addressing The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and by extension, providing solutions to some of the world’s most pressing challenges. In fact, The Hague is the first ImpactCity in the world. It is the hotspot for (international) Startups and Scaleups that focus on innovations for a better world.   

The city’s Impact Cluster brings together these entities, creating a dynamic environment where ideas can thrive and transformative initiatives can take root. This dedication to fostering global impact has positioned The Hague as a premier destination for conferences and events that seek to make a difference. Whether you’re organizing a large-scale summit or an intimate workshop, The Hague provides the perfect backdrop for meaningful discussions and groundbreaking decisions.
