NPC Ignites 2026

NPC Ignites returns on 13 October 2026 – a date for anyone committed to the future of the impact economy to have firmly in their calendar.

As the challenges facing the sector grow more complex, so too does the need for sharper thinking, stronger connections, and new approaches. NPC Ignites is designed for exactly this moment, offering a day of insight, challenge and forward-looking discussion to help leaders navigate what’s next and maximise the impact of their work.

Now in its second decade, the event welcomes over 250 senior figures from across charities, foundations, social enterprises and purpose-driven organisations. Expect honest conversations, fresh perspectives, and ideas that challenge the way you think and shape what you do next.

We are also actively working to improve the accessibility of our online and in-person events.

For in-person events we strive to use accessible venues.
