ChangeNOW is where capital meets purpose — where LPs, GPs, business angels, family offices, and catalytic investors converge to discover high-impact opportunities, share insights, and shape the future of sustainable investing.

For the 10th edition, we are creating the Impact Finance Forum: a dedicated track that makes these programmes and the summit’s finance topics more visible to investors.

NB : Some programmes of the Impact Finance Forum (Angels for Change, the Family Wealth Programme and Funds for Change) are built for specific types of investors and are therefore not included in the Investor ticket. Access to each programme is subject to pre-registration and approval by our team.

How do I join Funds for Change or Angels for Change ?

These two programmes are not included in the Investor ticket. Each one has its own pre-registration and its own guest list, reviewed by our team. Pre-register on the programme page — Funds for Change / Angels for Change — and our team will come back to you if the programme is a fit.

How can I apply to pitch my fund during Funds for Change?

Funds for Change takes place on 27 April 2027 at the Grand Palais, as part of the ChangeNOW Summit. Applications for this 7th edition are open until 15 January 2027.

Before applying, have a look at our considerations grid. Applying is free, through this form.
The selection committee, independent from ChangeNOW and built with our partners, reviews all applications in February 2027. Around ten funds are selected out of roughly one hundred applications. The committee does not look for the ten best impact funds — it looks for a diversity of investment theses and geographies that shows what impact investing means in practice.
Selected funds receive two passes, one for the pitcher and one for a colleague, along with coaching sessions to prepare their venue. On stage, each fund has 4 minutes to pitch and 3 minutes of questions, in English, in front of an audience of around 200 fund managers and allocators.
Funds that are not selected this year can still attend the summit with one pass, by introducing us to LPs from their network.
We can share feedback on your application on request.

As an investor, how can I get a quick overview of the programming relevant to me?

All the programming dedicated to investors is gathered within the Impact Finance Forum, which takes place on Monday 26 April in the afternoon and throughout Tuesday 27 April. It brings together finance sessions, networking moments, partner side events and our investor programmes: Funds for Change, the Family Wealth Programme and Angels for Change. Some of these, such as our investor programmes and private side events, are subject to pre-registration and approval. The full programme will be published on our website ahead of the summit. Find more information on our Impact Finance Forum page.
