-Jaden Smith
“Solutions from Jaden and the other speakers at the IMPACT Summit are more needed than ever.”
“The show itself proved to be a mix of emotional calls to action.”
“Our experience at the EMA IMPACT Summit is always just the restart and shot in the arm we need. The most innovative minds are brought together under one roof to share positive, solution-oriented thoughts. We appreciate the opportunity to cross-pollinate with diverse industries, learn, share, and apply what we learn.“
