Empact at Positive Impact Foundation’s Innovation, AI & Impact event

70% of companies do not have reliable supply chain data. AI can help fill in. But who decides if it’s good enough?

We are investing in smart systems, data tracking and AI tools. But while machines are getting smarter and smarter, the real question remains: how do we make sure people understand, use and trust this? On March 12, 2026, we will delve deeper into this during the event Innovation, AI & Impact by Positive Impact Foundation in the Flint Theater in Amersfoort.

Digital Product Passports: AI vs. humans

Anne Rademaker of Empact will provide an interactive workshop in which she will show how Digital Product Passports can already be deployed today. It’s about more than just implementing technology. Organizations working on data traceability and product transparency soon discover that the real challenge lies not with the technology, but with the people who have to work with it.

During the session, we will share concrete real-world experiences and show how organizations can already align with existing and evolving standards and regulations. The central issue: how does AI enhance our human intelligence instead of replacing it? Because precisely by simplifying complexity and enabling better choices, technology truly accelerates the circular transition. Want to delve in advance into the governance issues behind this theme? Then read our article on why transparency without governance doesn’t work.

A day full of inspiration

The event brings together about 400 impact makers for an afternoon of energy, knowledge and connection. In addition to workshops, there will be keynotes by organizational futurologist Arjen Banach and human-centered futurist Christian Kromme. Both speakers will address the increasingly relevant question: how do we make AI more human and sustainable?
