The 2025 Annual Global Dialogue in Toronto, hosted by Forum for Impact (FFI), is designed as an intimate, invite-only gathering that emphasizes deep relationship-building and cross-border collaboration. Central to the agenda is Global Perspectives in Impact, a session that convenes leaders from Europe, the U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean to share regional priorities and develop practical ways to work together for greater collective effect. Throughout the event, FFI’s Impact Lenses framework will help participants turn dialogue into measurable projects and track progress long after the conference concludes.

Key themes reflect the most urgent opportunities in impact investing today. Panels will explore women’s leadership in finance, innovations in climate philanthropy, investing alongside Indigenous Peoples, and sustainable oceans finance, as well as strategies to expand philanthropy and donor-advised funds for impact. By weaving together these focus areas, the gathering aims to accelerate meaningful investment and philanthropy, foster global partnerships, and spark collaborative solutions that advance social and environmental progress worldwide.

Progress Summit is a high-impact gathering scheduled for November 13, 2025, in New York City, aimed at “bold builders shaping what’s next” by focusing on bridging the “progress gaps” between innovation and access.

The summit brings together leaders, entrepreneurs, strategists, and changemakers to explore how the benefits of new technologies, ideas, and systems can be more equitably distributed and scaled.

Attendees will engage in sessions, panels, and networking designed to spark actionable ideas that close divides, in sectors such as social impact, tech, policy, and business.

The Davos experience curated by Shauna Arnott, Mariola Czarniak, and Niclas Butz draws a rarefied circle of global power players, visionary founders, heads of state, transformative investors, cultural icons, and pioneering changemakers, each at the forefront of shaping the future.

From CEOs of industry-defining companies to sustainability trailblazers, influential policymakers, and next-generation innovators, every attendee brings extraordinary influence, insight, and intention.

This is not just a gathering, it is a convergence of the world’s most exceptional minds and networks, set against the prestige of Davos, where every connection has the potential to change the course of industries, policies, and lives.

We invite you to join us on this adventure to Davos.
