The Impact Stories
As we look ahead to Katapult Future Fest 2025, scheduled for May 21-23, we find ourselves reflecting on the deep connections and pivotal moments from KFF24. The videos, photos, and podcasts captured last year aren’t just archives – they’re reminders of the real conversations and shared ideas that continue to shape our collective path forward.
We’re genuinely excited to introduce a new interview series that brings to light the voices of the investors, changemakers, founders, and thought leaders who were at the heart of KFF24. These individuals, each with their unique perspectives and relentless drive for change, played a crucial role in advancing the mission.
The content, produced by New Nordic Way, offers a rich collection of content, including on-site studio recordings, thoughtful reports, and in-depth podcast interviews with remarkable individuals from KFF24. The discussions span vital topics like activism, systemic impact, mental health investment, ethical AI, innovative approaches to land and sea stewardship, and the role of art in storytelling for social good. These conversations reflect the real-world expertise and personal reflections of global pioneers, offering honest insights into what the future holds.
These interviews are a reminder of the community we’ve built together and the shared sense of purpose that drives us. Listening back, we’re reminded of the hope and determination that fuel our ongoing work. We remain committed to this journey, knowing that the road ahead is filled with opportunities to make a meaningful difference.

SPECIAL: Katapult Future Fest Conversations Ep.2: The Future of Food: Alternative Proteins
What are the impact opportunities and investment opportunities associated with alternative proteins and food tech?
The industrial animal agriculture industry contributes almost 20% of the world's carbon emissions - on par with the entire transport sector. When thinking about alternative proteins and food tech, many miss the impact it will have on other areas of life such as the climate and healthcare. Alex Mayers, of The Good Food Institute, and Hooked Foods founder, Tom Johansson, educate us all on where the greatest opportunities are, where the investment should go, and where the greatest myths and misunderstandings lie in this exponentially growing field.
