In the dynamic world of philanthropy and nonprofits, the Lowell Milken Center fosters an environment of intellectual growth and collaboration. Through conferences and convenings, as well as external speaking engagements, our Thought Leadership initiatives provide a platform for scholars, nonprofit leaders, and the broader community to engage in meaningful dialogue, share insights, and shape the future of the sector.
Annual programming will include the Western Conference on Tax-Exempt Organizations, now in its 27th year, and a convening of nonprofits arts professionals featuring leaders in the field. In addition, our faculty will engage in external speaking opportunities to address and educate on issues of interest to nonprofit and philanthropic professionals.
