Seeking Proposals, Sponsors, Exhibitors, and User Groups
Nashville, TN – The Technology Association of Grantmakers (TAG) is pleased to announce the opening of the call for sessions for its 2023 Conference, which will take place from November 6 – 9, 2023, at the Grand Hyatt Nashville. This year’s theme is “Trust and Technology,” reflecting the growing importance of technology in civil society and the need to build trust around its use.
TAG’s Conference is the premier networking and learning event in #philanthropytech, bringing together technology leaders and practitioners from private, family, corporate, and community foundations across North America, the UK, and the EU. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore the tensions and possibilities on the horizon for technology in civil society and engage in stimulating conversations about the current and future state of philanthropy.
The Conference is currently seeking session proposals, sponsors, exhibitors, and user groups to ensure a diverse and informative program. The call for sessions closes on May 17, 2023 at 11:59 PM ET. Prospective speakers and sponsors are invited to submit proposals that align with the Conference’s theme of “Trust and Technology,” including but not limited to topics such as data privacy, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and digital inclusion.
“We are excited to bring together the brightest minds in philanthropy and technology to explore the future of civil society,” said the TAG Executive Director, Chantal Forster. “This year in particular, it’s vital that the philanthropic sector assess our readiness for technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) as well as our responsibility to set standards and ensure positive outcomes for society.”
Registration for the Conference opens in early August, and attendance will be limited to 450 attendees to facilitate a collegial atmosphere for knowledge exchange and networking. For those looking to book their stay at the Grand Hyatt Nashville in advance of registration, bookings can be made through the TAG2023 event website.
