What makes this years Talking Philanthropy different?
In previous years, Talking Philanthropy has focused on generational wealth transition, women in philanthropy, mission, and leadership. Talking Philanthropy 2021 will be our fourth forum and first in Asia.
We will look at wealth distribution and the dramatic growth of Ultra High Net Worth Individuals (HNWI) in the Asia/Pacific region, the roles of development organisations, NGOs, governments, philanthropists, and the charity sector in nurturing the philanthropic ecosystem.

In light of the pandemic and the implementation of travel restrictions and social distancing measures, we have had to reconfigure the event and in doing so, have come up with a new and exciting format, with online participation for the first time.
