Enable. Unify. Transform.

After stirring things up in Bangalore, India, and cooking up connections at our Regional Potlucks in Bangkok, Thailand and Nairobi, Kenya, the Global Potluck is spicing things up in Manila, Philippines this October 2026. These gatherings unite the brightest minds in the impact incubation industry, mixing diverse voices into a playful, resilient, and powerfully supportive ecosystem of incubators.

What is the Pollinate Potluck?

Welcome to a gathering where intention isn’t just a buzzword—it’s the main ingredient. Here, the impact incubation community assembles to toss around big ideas, spark inspiration, and, of course, indulge in some seriously good food. Picture a feast where collaboration is on the menu and purpose is the secret sauce.

A Sneak Peak of the Menu

It is a flavourful adventure where the impact incubation community gathers to share food, ideas, and inspiration. Think of it as a feast designed around the spirit of collaboration.

Capacity-Building Workshops

Gain hands-on tools to strengthen your work! Whether it’s smarter fundraising, meaningful alumni engagement, or cracking the funding code. You’ll leave with practical takeaways, not just post-its.

Peer-Led Learning & Co-Creation Sessions

Harness the collective intelligence of your region. From investor-incubator dialogues to building better funder relationships. These sessions are built around real challenges, real insights, and your lived experience.

Escape Rooms (Yes, Really!)

Be locked into structured chaos with the region’s boldest minds. Solve design challenges like rethinking talent pipelines or co-designing sticky programs, and get out only when you’ve cracked it, together.

Networking Activities with a Twist

Forget stiff introductions! This is networking, potluck-style. Whether it’s Human Bingo or an Asks & Offers marketplace, these sessions are designed to uncover alignment, spark curiosity, and build real connections over coffee and conversation.

Community & Culture Moments

From shared meals to local storytelling and a lively Snack Exchange + Cultural Mixer, we’re bringing regional identity and joy into every part of the experience. Expect warmth, laughter, and maybe even a new dance move.

Reflection & Closing Circles

We believe the way we end matters just as much as how we begin. Guided reflection, commitment-setting, and closing circles help us leave not just inspired—but activated.
