The European Impact Map is a free, Europe-wide directory of impact ventures - every organization shown as a pin on a shared, open map. It gives purpose-driven organizations a place to be found, a way to connect with others working toward the same goals, and the credibility that comes from standing alongside peers who meet the same open eligibility criteria.
The goal is simple: bring Europe’s scattered impact ecosystem onto one map - so the organizations creating public value can find each other, and so anyone looking for them knows where to look.
Impact ventures are working on the worlds most pressing challenges all across Europe - but they remain hard to find, scattered across countries, registries, and networks that don’t talk to each other. Funders struggle to see the full landscape, consumers lack the awareness of more sustainable and impact-driven alternatives to their more mainstream options, and promising ventures stay invisible simply because there is no shared place to be seen.
The European Impact Map closes that gap. By putting impact ventures on one open map, it turns a fragmented field into a visible, connected community - the first step toward an impact ecosystem that works at European scale.
Visibility. Your venture appears on a public, Europe-wide map - discoverable by peers, partners, funders, and anyone searching for impact work in your field or region.
Connection. The Map makes it easy to find and reach organizations working toward the same goals, turning isolated efforts into a network that can collaborate, learn, and grow together.
Credibility. Every organization on the map has met the same open eligibility criteria, so a listing means something - your place among Europe’s impact ventures signals that you belong.
Getting on the map is straightforward and free. Four steps:
1 Go to the Map - Visit the European Impact Map website.
2 Submit your entry - It takes about five minutes - your name, website, registry number, and the SDGs you work toward.
3 Eligibility check - We review your entry within about five days to confirm it meets the shared criteria.
4 Get visible - Your venture appears on the map, discoverable across Europe.
The European Impact Map is one part of Public Value Hub’s wider mission: to build the infrastructure that helps impact ventures grow - through education, impact measurement, and access to capital. Making impact ventures visible and connected is where that work begins. When an organization joins the Map, it becomes part of a growing European community committed to making impact measurable, comparable and investable - and to making impact entrepreneurship the new normal.
