From impact data to impact decisions: masterclass with maze

​What?
In the context of Unicorn Week 2025, Maze is gathering players from the Portuguese impact ecosystem to discuss the concept of impact management.
We will present to the audience some key concepts regarding the importance of managing impact, as opposed to merely measuring it, aimed at equipping both impact investors and founders to best manage the impact of their portfolios or companies.
To support our concrete example, we will have Fundação Ageas, in the person of Francisco Palmares, sharing how they have applied these concepts to their impact activities.

​You can expect:

• ​to leave the room with a concrete notion of the benefits that impact management brings

• ​to learn about concrete cases of impact management

• ​to network with relevant players (and most of all great people) in the ecosystem

• ​a great sunrise and view over the river

​Agenda

​8h30 - 9h | Welcome coffee
9h - 10h | Presentation on impact management and Fundação Ageas’ case study
10h - 10h30 | Group discussion
