Impact Tank, a trailblazing venture-building company, marked a significant milestone in its journey by celebrating its third anniversary with a grand gala event. The evening served as a splendid tribute to indigenous heritage, embodying Impact Tank's core values of diversity, inclusivity and sustainable development.

The gala, hosted at Impact Tank's headquarters in Windhoek, brought together an illustrious gathering of entrepreneurs, philanthropists, thought leaders and the company's esteemed partners.

The theme for the evening, 'Honouring Indigenous Heritage', was carefully selected to acknowledge the rich cultural traditions, wisdom and invaluable contributions of indigenous communities around the world.

The event's keynote speaker, Johannes !Gawaxab, Bank of Namibia governor, emphasised the critical importance of investing in the economy.

"If we invest in our economy, it's going to help not only in creating jobs but also in skills transfer. It is also going to help in technology transfer, foster efficiency and improve the quality of life of people."



Incredible impact

Speaking on the Partner Alliance, Mufaro Nesongano, manager of communications and Mutual Foundation at Old Mutual Namibia, highlighted the significant role Impact Tank played in incubating entrepreneurs involved in the Growing Seed programme.

"Out of those nine entrepreneurs, significant strides were made when they came to Impact Tank."

Over its three-year journey, Impact Tank has emerged as a leader in the field of venture building, with a steadfast focus on projects driving positive social change.

The company's portfolio includes ventures dedicated to sustainability, social justice, and economic empowerment, all successfully incubated and scaled to make a lasting impact.

Elzine Mushambi, founder and CEO of Impact Tank, expressed gratitude for the remarkable journey over the past three years.

"As we celebrate our third anniversary, we reflect on the incredible impact we've been able to create alongside our partners and collaborators. Tonight's theme of honouring indigenous heritage is a reminder of the wealth of knowledge and innovation that exists within diverse cultures, which we believe is essential for building a more sustainable and equitable future," Mushambi said.

The gala event served as a testament to Impact Tank's unwavering commitment to making a positive impact on society. The company remains dedicated to its work in the venture-building space, forging innovative solutions and nurturing partnerships that promote social and environmental progress.
