2015 Annual Meeting Corporate Working Group

Corporate Working Group

Corporate foundations and giving programs have a strong history of coupling traditional grantmaking with a range of tools for social investment. Their history shows a unique and undeniable ability to create positive social change around the globe.

When businesses align their philanthropic mission with their business strategy, they can leverage a range of powerful tools -- such as R & D, market intelligence, cutting-edge technology, and strong community relationships. Informed by leading corporate philanthropic practitioners, the conference's corporate programming is designed to elevate and share examples of how companies act in new and different ways, thereby opening up a host of possibilities for the wider philanthropic field.
