C Summit – Think Tomorrow Today: A New Era on Collaboration

C Summit will take place as an online event, with a planned in-person participation in the Netherlands, on 3-4 December 2020.

We all want to make a difference – in our team, our organisation, our country, in Europe. The outbreak and spread of Coronavirus has taught us that alone we cannot tackle the most pressing challenges, as the world we live in has become more interconnected. We need to innovate and scale solutions that will shape the future of Europe for years to come. We find ourselves in a new era, in the era of collaboration. This will require extraordinary efforts, leadership and coordination across the sectors but also space for meaningful conversation.

This year’s C Summit invites you to think tomorrow today. This is the first and ultimate European Corporate Philanthropy and Social Investing Summit that gathers corporate social investors and philanthropists of all types. Not only will we offer different formats allowing you to participate online or in person, so that you can make the best out of this European gathering. We will also share latest research on the corporate philanthropy and social sectors in Europe that will boost your learning experience.

C Summit offers you a place where you will engage with a community of fellow corporate foundations, social investors and acceleration funds who are learning alongside you – for more impact, for better societies, for a better tomorrow. It is a safe space where you can meet your peers, share your experience and discuss issues you feel passionate about.

The first C Summit took place in 2019 kindly hosted by BMW Foundation in Munich with 160 representatives of corporate and philanthropic sectors from 24 countries. Take a look at the official after movie here.

Based on this success, we are happy to continue this conversation and invite you to join this year’s C Summit in the Netherlands or online to share knowledge, empower and inspire.

Let’s usher in the new era of collaboration together!
