Our volunteer stories

"Shortly after volunteering at HackSummit, I secured an internship in the impact sector.

The company is led by an inspiring keynote speaker whom I heard during the summit. I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to volunteer at the summit, as it led to this amazing connection.”

"I volunteered in 2022 and 2023 at the HackSummit, and would do it again any day.

Great conversations, inspiring people, amazing food and startups and a shared goal to bring innovation to life. There is no other event or community like this. Taking part and contributing to it is a real pleasure!"

"Attending the keynotes and pitches expanded my horizons on food sustainability. I would definitely recommend volunteering.

As a student of food science, I was amazed to meet and connect with stakeholders of the entire food system like funders & ventures, start ups, novel-idea creators, other scientists, media influencers and many more."

At the HackSummit I met so many inspiring people that not only taught me about cutting-edge solutions but also made me feel empowered to contribute meaningfully to a cause greater than myself.
