Our goal is to strengthen the Oxford MBA programming for students who are committed to impactful careers and leading systemic change.

Run by the Skoll Centre, Impact Lab is a co-curricular Impact Leadership programme that supports University of Oxford students who are committed to having an impact-driven career. Impact Lab helps students to explore different mindsets and approaches to building an impact career as a:

• Social Intrapreneur – Fostering social or environmental change within large established organizations.
• Social Entrepreneur – Creating new ventures to address social or environmental challenges.
• Social Extrapreneur – Working across organizational boundaries to orchestrate systemic change.

Who is the programme for?
The Impact Lab programme is open to postgraduate students of the University of Oxford including MBA students at Saïd Business School.
