Much like how the internet revolutionized business, AI is emerging with the potential to transform advancement programs. This session will take a high-level look at a spectrum of AI-driven strategies and technologies that can empower institutions to harness data-driven insights more deeply, better personalize donor experiences, more accurately predict fundraising outcomes, and streamline administrative processes. Join us as we explore AI’s benefits, pitfalls, and even demonstrations and expand your AI IQ.
Engaging donors meaningfully is no longer an option; it is an expectation. Like many other elements of advancement work, creating the right experience for a wide array of donors and prospective donors is complicated and needs to be approached genuinely. This session will lead us through a discussion on emerging practices in donor relations and engagement at multiple points of the constituent lifecycle.
Speakers: Mo Cotton Kelly, UConn Foundation; Rod Grabowski, University of Central Florida Foundation; Katrina Klaproth, BWF, Bob Guittard, BWF
Big gifts are often in response to big ideas. This session will discuss the challenges and opportunities around building big ideas and how to best position these ideas to attract significant principal gifts. Whether working with presidents or deans, making these big ideas into meaningful gift work and effectively communicating these ideas to UHNW donors is critical for campaign success.
This interactive session will focus on critical aspects of Philanthropic Due Diligence. As philanthropy becomes increasingly complex, the importance of thorough scrutiny and risk management in accepting donations has never been more crucial. This session will address the challenges of reputation management, legal compliance, high-value global donations, and vulnerable donor populations. We will explore the nuance of a robust due diligence program and provide insight into effective policies, crisis communications, and training all with a specific focus on ensuring your institution practices dementia-friendly philanthropy.
