Feedback

Check out what the previous participants & speakers said about Impact Day!

Timo Porval Marketing expert, Lavii Marketing & Turunduslabor
When I went for a stage rehearsal then I looked around and thought like wow, what a Main Stage! The way you have organized the whole event … As a performer, you will not be left stranded or alone – super!
Evelin Allas SEB, Baltic sustainability communication manager
Impact Day is a festival showcasing the power of impact and change. The expectation and need for such an event existed, which was also proven by the large number of participants. The content was rich and meaningful, featuring many speakers who offered diverse perspectives.
Kati Orav Visual practitioner, teacher & inspirational speaker; Creativity Catcher
Maybe more than a thousand people will gather in the hall at that moment to listen to me. Let’s just say that in some mornings before the event I was awake already at 5.30 due to that.
Kai Realo CEO of Ragn-Sells Estonia
Impact Day has taken a sustainable approach – everything that’s been brought here today can be taken away later. Nothing has been created that would make the environment even worse.
Andrus Albi Southwestern Consulting, Sales coach and partner
Impact Day is so well organized that I even started to doubt my own preparation! I saw an ad on the big screen of Ülemiste Centre and looked at it like “oh my god, I’m one of those people performing there”.
Katarina Papp RingKarp, Founder
Impact Day stood out for its thoroughness and a real will to make a difference on sustainability issues. They really dared to change consumption patterns.
Annika Jalak Tartu 2024, Social studies manager
Thoroughly thought-out UX. Pre-event info came out with good intervals and at the right time for the visitor. Your volunteers were awesome – they boldly approached and offered help. I also noticed your environmentally friendly activities (e.g. water, cards, transport).
Anett Kislov ResQ Club, Marketplace manager
We met many inspiring people and impact-creating companies! In addition, the event was perfectly organized – I liked how the organizers moved around with a smile on their face all the time.
