Festival is Europe’s leading platform for sustainable innovation connecting startups, corporates, and thought leaders driving the green transformation. As a full-stack developer, I contributed to building and optimizing the web platform to ensure a seamless, scalable, and content-rich experience that reflects the festival’s mission of impact and innovation.
Problem Statement
The festival needed a dynamic digital presence to support its growing audience, manage complex event data, and highlight climate and sustainability initiatives. The existing setup lacked flexibility, performance, and structure for growth across languages, partners, and evolving content.
My Role
Designed and implemented a responsive front end using React and Tailwind CSS, ensuring smooth user experience across all devices.
Developed the backend architecture using Node.js and Firebase, handling dynamic content, authentication, and CMS-like flexibility.
Integrated speaker profiles, session schedules, and partner showcases with scalable, reusable components.
Optimized performance for high-traffic event periods with lazy loading, caching, and content delivery best practices.
Conclusion
The revamped Impact Festival platform improved engagement and accessibility for a global audience. With scalable infrastructure and clean UI, it now serves as a robust hub for sustainable innovation supporting thousands of visitors, showcasing partners, and amplifying climate-focused action through tech.
