Whitepaper

Celebrity Capital

Influencer; celebrated person; athlete; entertainer. There are many different types of celebrity. This paper is for those who want to use the platform of their public persona and reputational capital for good.

Today’s session on the ‘State of Philanthropy’ will introduce five key topics that are central to our philanthropic approach and this week’s theme of “reimagining philanthropy for the next decade”, namely: ‘Innovation’, ‘Scale’, ‘Collaboration’, ‘Measurement’, and ‘Risk-Taking’. All of these themes are explored in the context of trust-based philanthropy, COVID-19 and their parallels to Neglected Tropical Diseases. Join Sarah Salomon, Head of UBS Family Advisory and Philanthropy Services Americas for a conversation with Bernadette Moffat, Executive Director of the ELMA Philanthropies Services (Africa), and Ellen Agler, CEO of the END Fund.
