The For Purpose Impact Accelerator Hub by Lord Mayor’s Charitable Foundation is a new space within Melbourne’s Innovation Precinct, opposite the Queen Victoria Market where for-purpose organisations come together to make great things happen. 

The Hub is a gathering place where for-purpose leaders, innovators, social enterprises, research partners, and philanthropic supporters, can collaborate and converge with a shared vision—to transform Greater Melbourne into an inclusive and sustainable city.

Officially opened by Lord Mayor Sally Capp AO in November 2023, the Hub offers a mix of long-term desk licences, hot desk solutions and an adaptive Collaboration Space located in the new 5-Star Green Star rated Narrm Ngarrgu Library and Family Services building.
