Ahead of the opening session, the Summit convenes a working briefing on what artificial intelligence actually means for the nonprofit sector — led by Bill Kirst, AI Ambassador at Adobe, including Nick Chin and colleagues. It is a working session, not a keynote: chief executives at the table, questions on the table.
The format depends on the room staying small, so it is kept that way by design. Attendance is included for a small number of those registered for the full Summit, with seats assigned in order of registration.
“Philanthropy is the rent we pay for the joy and privilege we have for our space on this earth.”
