Accelerating Collective Impact Through Shared Data & Knowledge

Imagine a world where the leading foundations put their collective minds, ideas and knowledge together in service of accelerated impact. What if we told you that world is closer than you think? Join IT leaders from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, and the Technology Affinity Group to share insights, research, and a vision for building the impact infrastructure within and across foundations.

Designing Equitable Events That Spark True Engagement

Many organizations host amazing events – but are still missing the mark on understanding their audience, planning around their needs, and designing the conditions for meaningful engagement. Getting the most out of gatherings means creating environments where people feel seen, valued, and invited in. You will learn tangible ways to build a norm of equity and inclusion, so you can get past barriers and into the real purpose of events. This workshop is for anyone who wants to get better at bringing people together. Presented by Bush Foundation
