SHARED VALUE &SOCIAL IMPACT
Concordia fosters meaningful dialogue, sparks collaboration, and inspires collective action by way of diverse,
innovative, and action-oriented programming. Concordia Members, Partners, and Advisors connect and
collaborate year-round within ten Programming Pipelines, each representing a topical global challenge or
social impact opportunity. Each Pipeline houses several points of engagement that bring our community
together to share best practices, incubate ideas, support current initiatives, and explore new opportunities
for partnerships. Each Pipeline also contains one or more Collaboratives comprised of issue area experts that
work on more specific, ongoing topics with the end goal of forming a public-private partnership as part of a
Concordia Campaign.
INDIVIDUALS
Council: An executive committee of the foremost thought leaders related to each Pipeline’s subject area who help scale opportunities and believe that partnerships provide viable solutions to pressing global challenges. The Council is comprised of distinguished Co-Chairs who collaborate with Concordia to define strategic programming goals, identify tangible deliverables, and inform the development of future initiatives.
Advisors: A group of industry experts who help guide
upcoming event agendas, anticipate future trends in
relevant industries, and assist in building Concordia’s
network of key stakeholders related to each Pipeline.
Working Group: A body of Concordia Members and
Advisors interested in overarching Pipeline thematics
who wish to receive quarterly updates related to content
development, recent publications, and upcoming events.
Within each Working Group, Collaboratives will be formed
around narrowed topics of focus which proactively incubate
ideas that are on the road to becoming future Concordia
Campaigns.
ORGANIZATIONS
Strategic Partner: Strategic Partners contribute to the development of Concordia programming by committing financial support to each Pipeline and lending their institutional expertise at the C-suite level. Strategic Partners will be acknowledged by having their brand featured on all Pipeline materials and will be offered the opportunity to co-host events related to the key subject area leading up to or following the Concordia Annual Summit. Key executives from each Strategic Partner organization will also serve as Co-Chairs on the Pipeline Council and will be afforded thought leadership opportunities as part of their tenure.
Programming Partner: Concordia partners with
leading think tanks, innovative government bureaus, and
international nonprofit institutions to develop its action-
oriented year-round programming. Through a collaborative
and iterative process, Concordia and its Programming
Partners curate topical content and develop event objectives
around timely global challenges.
Programming Collaborator: Collaborators include
government agencies, social enterprises, and nonprofit entities
that contribute institutional principals to be positioned as
event speakers and commit to supporting the expansion and
diversification of Concordia’s audience profile.
Concordia offers a range of opportunities for Members and its greater community to become more actively involved in its year-
round programming. For more information on how to get involved in Concordia’s programming, please contact Concordia’s
Director of Programming, Donniell Silva, at [email protected] or +1.646.568.1308.
