  • Do you have a real and not bookish knowledge of endowments?

  • Do you have an idea about the Russian endowment market development after the pandemic?

  • Have you achieved financial sustainability of your non-commercial organization acting contrary to  the rules?

Tell us your story at the festival EndowFest which takes place within V forum “Endowment 2021. More than money” on 19th – 23rd April 2021. Not only will you write your case in history of endowments but you can also influence the development of the future.

The organizers of the forum are the Vladimir Potanin Foundation and Moscow Management School SKOLKOVO under the auspices of the Ministry of Economic Development.

EndowFest is a festival about the future of endowments, it was designed to demonstrate aspirations of the non-commercial sector through personal stories. We would like to know what you have already achieved and what actions and tools you are going to use to implement your ideas on the development of endowments.

The online format of the event will allow us to attract public attention, and your recommendations and advice will help those who are only thinking about establishing an endowment fund or solving a problem with its development. A dialogue with a moderator will precede a presentation of each case and in the end of a talk be ready to answer questions.

Suggested topics for presentations (you can also suggest your own topic)
