Building more effective philanthropy

Giving in Asia is entering a new stage. Communities are leading. Funders are listening. Increasingly, success is measured not by the size of a grant but by evidence of real change. Innovative approaches are emerging across the region, from blended finance to data-driven tools that generate insights and sharpen decisions. The goal: philanthropy that is strategic, effective and rooted in local priorities. In this session, philanthropic leaders will share how they are shaping Asia’s impact journey, with an emphasis on action.
