A Summit Built for the Bold
YACS is a future-defining gathering of young leaders, social entrepreneurs, and innovators rewriting the rules of impact.
Where Vision Meets Velocity.
The Young Agents of Change Summit (YACS) brings together the world's most promising young minds — aged 16 to 35 — for three transformative days of keynotes, masterclasses, innovation labs, and curated networking.

Hosted across a state-of-the-art hybrid venue, YACS 2027 fuses Hollywood-grade stagecraft with intimate fireside conversations, an investor pitch arena, an exhibition expo, and an unforgettable awards gala honoring the Top 100 Young Agents of Change.
