Your starting point
You know you want to make a difference. Perhaps you've been carrying an idea around for months or even years.

Women with Impact Pathway helps you move from intention to action, with the guidance, community, and confidence to start building your positive impact business.

About the programme
Women with Impact Pathway is a 100-day pre-incubator programme for women who want to explore or launch a positive-impact company. Together with a cohort of just ten women changemakers, you'll combine self-paced online learning with six in-person meetups in The Hague, where you'll gain clarity, practical tools, and accountability to move your idea forward.

Why women only?
Women are underrepresented in the entrepreneurial ecosystem. We have learned that many are taking more time to consider the start and that women thrive in an environment where collaboration replaces competition, where there is space to ask questions, reflect, and grow. That's why we created a programme designed by and for women.
Three reasons for joining
Join a supportive cohort
Become part of a close-knit group of like-minded women, meeting biweekly at the Women with Impact Pathway Hub (tbd) in The Hague. Through collaborative, hands-on workshops, you'll experience a truly engaging environment that fosters deep connections and meaningful growth.
Overcome unique challenges
Tailored specifically for challenges often faced by women entrepreneurs, such as a lack of role models and mentors, imposter syndrome, and societal norms favouring masculine qualities over feminine ones, despite the necessity of both for successful and impactful ventures. Here, you’ll gain the tools to succeed on your terms.
Flexible and work-friendly
Designed to fit into your existing lifestyle, this programme allows you to maintain your current job. With the biggest part of the content delivered through self-paced online modules, you can learn and grow at your own speed without sacrificing your professional or personal commitments.
Criteria
The main criteria to join the Women with Impact Pathway programme are:
You want to turn your positive impact idea into a business you believe in or you want to find out if impact entrepreneurship is for you.
You are able to join the in person meetups in The Hague.
