Join the 2100 Movement now

Applications are open for the 2026 group! Read below and join our movement!

We’re thrilled to invite you to join the 2100 Movement!  2100 is an intergenerational movement of young leaders and impact-driven executives that transform decision-making in business and policies away from short-term financial value creation towards well-being (social, human and natural value) for generations now and in 2100. 2100 is a long-term movement to which members commit their career to, working together for the coming 76 years to realize this goal.

Together, we aim to create an impact economy in which we redefine value and success: from short-term financial gain to long-term societal impact! It’s an economy in which impact is a top priority to every boardroom decision and every enterprise is an impact enterprise! As a member of 2100, you will collaborate with the movement to transform policy, governance, and business for a flourishing and prosperous society in 2100.

About 2100

2100 is a movement of current executives and future leaders accelerating the transition to an Impact Economy: an economy where business, innovation, and entrepreneurship create lasting value for people, society, and the planet.

As a member of 2100, you will:

  • Join a powerful international network of senior executives and emerging leaders working together to drive systemic change.
  • Collaborate on impact-driven tools, initiatives, and policy proposals that put societal value at the heart of decision-making.
  • Develop your own impact leadership journey through masterclasses, roundtables, coaching, and partner programmes focused on impact, governance, and leadership.
  • Gain the knowledge, network, and experience to accelerate your path toward board and supervisory positions.

2100 is more than a programme: it is a long-term movement. Together, we are working to make impact the guiding principle of decision-making in business, government, and society for generations to come.

You’re expected to join the following events and activities in the first two years:

  • 2 days Fall School
  • 2 Masterclasses per year (4 in total)
  • 1 Round Table per year (2 in total)
  • Access to Nationale Conferentie Brede Welvaart
  • Opportunities to join specific campaigns & working group initiatives

After the first two years, you are welcome to keep joining many network activities.
