Philanthropy Innovation Summit

The Philanthropy Innovation Summit is a biennial event that convenes individual and family philanthropists to discuss strategic and impactful giving in a non-solicitation environment. By bringing together a community of high capacity philanthropists our goals are to explore learning and giving opportunities together, inspire connections between peer philanthropists, and share tools, best practices, and actionable resources.  

Our 2027 Philanthropy Innovation Summit—two days of  learning, connection, and community—will take place on March 2 & 3, 2027. Between now and then, we will be hosting a number of exciting opportunities to gather together as a Summit community. Stay tuned!
