Organised by the European Outdoor Group (EOG) in collaboration with the MagNet publishing group and Green Media Lab SRL SB, the 2026 Outdoor Impact Summit will take place 14–15 May 2026 at the Riva del Garda Conference Centre, as part of European Outdoor Week.

Content throughout the two-day event will focus on direct, impactful actions that organisations can take to redefine the boundaries of responsibility in the outdoor sector.

The summit brings together the entire outdoor supply chain and a wider community of professionals, providing a platform dedicated to sustainability, responsible innovation, and social impact.

Following the success of the first summit in 2025, the 2026 edition will delve deeper into what “impact” truly means for the industry. Delegates can expect keynote speeches, case studies, and workshops delivering tangible actions to implement within their own organisations, with a central focus on responsible and transparent communication about sustainability.

EOG managing director Christian Schneidermeier said: “Last year’s Outdoor Impact Summit set a high benchmark, delivering real and substantive actions that delegates could take away and implement. But the sustainability challenge is huge and it is more urgent than ever – that’s why there are no excuses.

“Collectively, we must do much more and we need to be certain that we make genuine, positive impacts. I urge colleagues to join us at the summit, where together we will identify practical solutions that can be applied across the entire value chain.”
