IMPACT Speaker Series spacer
spacer

Since 2002, the IMPACT Speaker Series has brought highly successful business leaders from a variety of industries to campus to share their experiences and give advice to students and other entrepreneurs on topics ranging from "building a venture around intellectual capital" to "successful entrepreneurship in large organizations" and "socially responsible leadership".

The weekly series provides Georgia Tech students, alumni and the Atlanta business community an opportunity to network and learn from successful entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and notable business and non-profit leaders.

Events for the series take place in the LeCraw Auditorium in the College of Business building at 4:30 pm on Wednesdays unless otherwise noted. The series is free and open to the public, and reservations are not required.

How to become a speaker:

The IMPACT Speaker Series welcomes local and international business and non-profit leaders to share their experiences with Georgia Tech students. Participation in the IMPACT Speaker Series is on a voluntary basis and we as a community are very thankful to all our past speakers that have given so graciously of their time.

If you would like to be considered or would like to nominate someone as a speaker, please contact the ILE.
