NextBillion - An Initiative of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan

Each year Net Impact brings leaders together for a dynamic exchange of ideas about how to tackle our toughest social and environmental problems. Today’s challenges are more complex than any one person or organization can solve. Collaboration is essential to developing innovative solutions to change the world.

This year we’re taking it a step further with the theme “Outside the Lines.” Explore transformational change that defies traditional expectations. Dive deep into bold new trends and practices that challenge conventional wisdom and break barriers.

Join us and gain skills, experiences, and connections so you can have the greatest impact now and throughout your career.
