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

SOCAP is the largest and most diverse impact investing community in the world- and it is back in-person again!

Our flagship is the vanguard of the emerging global impact economy – convening ideas and capital to catalyze world change. The largest gathering of investors, entrepreneurs, and social impact leaders come together to accelerate progress against the world’s toughest challenges through market-based solutions.

We convene a global ecosystem and marketplace – social entrepreneurs, investors, foundation and nonprofit leaders, government and policy leaders, creators, corporations, academics and beyond –through live and digital content experiences that educate, spur collaboration, and inspire investment in positive impact. SOCAP unlocks the potential of markets to accelerate impact and have convened more than 100,000 people since our first event.

As we eagerly anticipate the return to in-person convenings, we are excited to announce a new partnership with Yerba Buena Center for the Arts (YBCA) to host the SOCAP22 flagship conference. YBCA is located in the heart of downtown San Francisco, with an airy, welcoming physical layout and adjacency to the vibrant Yerba Buena Gardens.  Multiple restaurants, hotels and cultural venues are very close by.

We look forward to strolling through the Yerba Buena Gardens with you in October 2022.
