On May 14, Simona had the pleasure of joining the stage at Impact Poland 2026, one of Central and Eastern Europe’s leading events dedicated to business, innovation, and leadership.

During the conversation “More Than a Ranking: What Remains After a Career of Highs and Lows”, she reflected on the journey that shaped her both as an athlete and as a person. From breakthrough moments and Grand Slam victories to the challenges that tested her resilience, the discussion explored the lessons, values, and perspective gained throughout an extraordinary career.

The conversation also touched on life beyond tennis, the pressures that come with performing at the highest level, the importance of staying authentic, and the role sport can play in shaping character far beyond the court.

It was a real pleasure to be part of Impact Poland and to share my story, experiences, and lessons from both tennis and life. Grateful for the inspiring conversations and warm energy. – Simona Halep

Bringing together leaders from business, technology, culture, and sport, Impact Poland provided a valuable platform for meaningful conversations about performance, resilience, personal growth, and the experiences that shape us along the way.
