Session
Philanthropy isn’t what it used to be. The next generation is flipping the script so that it is less about tradition, but more about experimentation, authenticity, and impact that actually matters. This session is about real talk: how they’re doing it differently, what drives them, and why the future of change looks nothing like the past.
