MISSION POSSIBLE: Toge­ther making the impos­si­ble possi­ble – this is the approach of this year’s Swiss Foun­da­tion Sympo­sium. The programme of the largest Swiss indus­try meeting in the foun­da­tion sector focu­ses on the ques­tion of how foun­da­ti­ons can contri­bute to solving current socie­tal challenges.

14 inter­ac­tive sessions

The 14 sessi­ons create inter­ac­tive spaces to reflect on the role of foun­da­ti­ons. Topics include, among others, coope­ra­tion between the board of direc­tors and the foun­da­tion board, Orga­ni­sa­tio­nal Deve­lo­p­ment or Stra­te­gic Foresight.

We are looking forward to this year’s spea­k­ers! Among others, we welcome Hans Schöpf­lin (Schöpf­lin Foun­da­tion), Patri­cia Danzi (Swiss Agency for Deve­lo­p­ment and Coope­ra­tion, SDC), Michael Bruter (London School of Econo­mics and Poli­ti­cal Science) and Evi Alle­mann (Govern­ment Coun­cil­lor of the Canton of Bern). In addi­tion, you can discuss with other parti­ci­pants at the round tables.

The Foun­da­tion Sympo­sium serves as a meeting place, for further trai­ning and as a plat­form for current and forward-looking topics in phil­an­thropy. Regis­ter now and secure a seat in the sessi­ons of your choice. The number of seats is limited.
