Livestream IDG Summit

The IDG Summit is the annual flagship event of the Inner Development Goals movement, which focuses on inner development as the basis for sustainable, meaningful change in organizations and society.

When and where

The Summit will take place in Stockholm (Cirkus Stockholm) and online via the IDG Summit Livestream, this year from October 15 to 17, 2025, bringing together leaders from business, education, civil society organizations, and government to bridge the gap between inner development and external impact. STUDIO.WHY will provide a livestream of the first day from its studio at Geldermalsen station.

Program

The Livestream IDG Summit is covering the first day of the IDG Summit, structured around the five dimensions of the IDG framework (Being, Thinking, Relating, Collaborating, and Acting). It includes inspiring keynotes, practical workshops, participatory art installations, and networking opportunities. We offer you the opportunity to follow the keynotes on our big screen. During the breaks, we will provide short, powerful workshops related to the Inner Development Goals. The exact program will follow later.

Previous editions

Previous editions attracted more than 2,000 participants and world-class speakers, such as Otto Scharmer, Amy Edmondson, and Robert Kegan, as well as thousands of online participants via local IDG hubs. STUDIO.WHY also provided a IDG Summit Livestream for the first time in 2024.

At the heart of the Livestream IDG Summit 2025 is a lineup of voices ready to spark inspiration on what it takes to lead in a world of complexity, polarisation, and rapid transformation. This year’s storytellers, including systems thinkers, climate innovators, cultural catalysts, and pioneering leaders, will offer a rich tapestry of perspectives, each one rooted in deep practice, bold experimentation, and lived experience. Gather to hear the unique insights that will foster the courage, clarity, and collaboration necessary for turning paradoxes into possibilities and integrating differences for a more resilient, connected, and regenerative world.
