From Impact to Prosperity: A New Paradigm
November 12, 2025 | Eventfabrik, Bern
Amid growing global challenges, it’s time to rethink how we define success. Deriving from the Swiss Impact and Prosperity Initiative (SIPI), this year’s theme introduces a new paradigm for long-term success that will guide our Deep Dives, keynotes, and panels and engage leaders from business, policy, academia, and civil society. SIPI suggests that we need a shared narrative around enduring prosperity and a way to work together to bring it to life. With SIPI, we aim to redefine this narrative and build the collaboration architecture that will move us from fragmented efforts to coherent action across Switzerland.
This Forum brings together business executives, sustainability experts, policymakers, academics, and entrepreneurs leveraging collective intelligence to further explore the shift from impact-driven focus to long-term prosperity. The programme is designed to foster collaboration, deepen resilience, and empower leaders to champion a new kind of prosperity, one that creates lasting value not just for business, but for society and the planet as a whole.
Ready to redefine prosperity? Join us at the Forum to break silos, spark bold ideas and start building lasting impact, together.
Learn from and engage with experts, thought leaders, and changemakers across diverse industries to shape a resilient future.

Celebrate with us the winners of the Environment, Innovation and Public Choice Awards.
The Swiss Impact Forum really creates a space where you can not only network and exchange ideas, but I find, especially in the breakout sessions, there’s really time to go properly into details and also take something away and bring it home.

It’s nice to see everyone get together once a year. We learn new things and meet new people, and it’s great to see that the old ones are still around and that we’re still working together to do good.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much interest there was, and how diverse and inclusive everything was. It was really nice to see a diverse mix in the room, and the conversations and exchanges were very uplifting.

“You can talk with all sorts of people from different industries and learn from them. Otherwise, you’re always in your own bubble, and here you can get a bit of a different perspective and find out what other industries are doing to have a positive impact.”
