Making big waves
High-impact describes something that produces significant, powerful effects.
A high-impact workout is physically demanding.
High-impact research shapes its field substantially.
In materials science, high-impact refers to resistance against forceful collision: high-impact plastic.
The term often appears in business and policy contexts to emphasize meaningful results: high-impact initiatives, high-impact investments.
