MI2024

The Madrid Impacta award is one of the Madrid City Council's lines of recognition for social entrepreneurship.

Its purpose is to financially and socially support business projects with a real measurable impact promoted by entrepreneurs and social companies that, through a specific economic activity, address detected problems that society is facing and, especially, groups at risk. of exclusion or social or economic vulnerability and provide solutions to mitigate or prevent such problems.

They also focus on highlighting the fundamental role of Madrid as a city that promotes initiatives that combine the entrepreneurial spirit with social value, innovative projects and job generators, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations 2030 Agenda.

Other objectives of the award are to make impact entrepreneurship known to society and its importance in finding solutions to social and environmental problems not solved by traditional companies, to mediate in the connection between these companies and social impact investors and to stimulate the investment of social impact in the city of Madrid.

For the implementation and development of this call, the Madrid City Council has the collaboration of Impact Hub Madrid, PwC Spain, IBM, REPSOL Foundation  and Crisalion Mobility. All entities are part of the jury.
