This is Spring – WebSummit 2025

this is SPRING

Where founders and investors come together for impact.

We seek to change the world through innovation. We do this by connecting and educating founders and investors to create a sustainable, healthy & equitable world.

Our mission is to create a world where every business is an impact business & every investor is an impact investor. This is how we’re making it happen.

Welcome to Spring

We design and deliver programs and experiences to build an inclusive community of investors and support a diverse range of founders to scale their impactful solutions.

The Spring Group is the go-to hub for impact business & investing. It includes Spring Activator, Spring Collective, Spring Impact Capital, Propel Impact & Spring Impact Society.

Invest Together in Women-Led Impact

It’s beyond time for women and non-binary founders to get equitable access to investment for their startups. We’re changing the landscape together.

Invest Together brings purpose-driven founders together with like-minded, supportive impact investors to learn about impact investing as a joint cohort. Spring has thoughtfully designed a successful program that addresses the unique challenges women and non-binary founders face as they raise funds in spaces where they are consistently underrepresented and excluded.
