From Impact Investing to Funder Collaboratives: Exploring Innovations in Philanthropic Giving

-

In an era where traditional philanthropy is ever evolving, this conversation will explore innovative models such as philanthropic intermediaries, donor networks, innovation competitions, and venture philanthropy—and examine how they are disrupting conventional giving. From grassroots initiatives to large-scale investments, we will delve into how pooling resources and expertise can amplify impact, how investments can generate measurable social and environmental returns as well as financial profits, and how business principles and strategic investments can be leveraged to drive sustainable social change.
