"I Loved how education, entrepreneurship, education and entertainment were unfolded at a very high level and in playful ways. It provided access to 'other worlds' and ways of thinking...clearly showing lots of similarities to where ideas can cross-pollinate. Super, super inspiring!"

EPIC IMPACT SOCIETY
We started on a journey as an international summit that the team began to develop in 2018 based on the EPIC acronym: experiential learning, pause, ingenuity and community engagement. The success of the inaugural summit launched in 2019 was the catalyst for our inspiration to form EPIC Impact Society. We continue to grow to fulfill the EPIC vision: "We are a creative force for change in the world."
