Create - Connect - Educate The Impulse Network is a student-driven, not-for-profit movement founded to create impulses for change in the sports industry. From the base in St. Gallen, we are committed to connecting political, business, cultural and other leaders in society to drive change on a global and regional level. In everything we do, we strive to educate and demonstrate outstanding entrepreneurship through the students involved in our initiative — and all of this with moral and intellectual integrity. Furthermore, we aim to help and prepare young talents for a career in the sports industry by building awareness of this profession and offering a wide range of initiatives, networking events, and resources to collaborate with leading firms in the sports business.
While our conference already incorporates formats of interactivity with young minds raising their voices and sharing their learnings, our aim is to further the intergenerational dialogue through an essay competition. Through this format, the next generation is offered a platform to share their opinions, which form an equally important part of the dialogue as the insights/knowledge of the experts. For participating in the essay competition we ask innovative minds to elaborate on the question below. The authors are encouraged to use their imagination while always referring their ideas and opinions to academic knowledge. As an incentive, we offer a price pool that consists of 5000 CHF that will be split among the
best three participants. Additionally the most inspiring writers will be invited to the Impulse Summit as a Global Talent.
At the Impulse Summit 2021 we ask leaders of today’s sports industry to share the lessons they learned in the past 21 years. Imagine yourself being an expert in the sports industry in 21 years (in 2042). How would you assess the question we pose to current executives for the Impulse Summit in 2021? What is your biggest lesson learned from the past 21 years?

We use our different events to give varying people interested in the sports business a platform to take part in an intergenerational exchange. We have the Impulse Summit or this year the Impulse Week as our flagship events. We also have workshops with some of our partners, where we visit their headquarters and develop solutions for emerging problems together. In our industry projects we consult companies over a longer period of time to develop and create ideas and solutions. Finally, for our fellow students at the University of St. Gallen we offer events on campus such as the annual foosball tournament.
