The International Grantmaking Symposium

April 9–10, 2025 | Miami, Florida

We're thrilled to announce that CAF America's Ninth International Grantmaking Symposium (IGS) will take place on April 9-10 at the Loews Coral Gables Hotel in Miami, Florida. IGS 2025 invites U.S. funders and philanthropists to explore the theme Move Forward Together: Cross-Border Grantmaking for Impactful Partnerships. This year’s event will focus on innovative strategies for deploying philanthropic tools to support partnerships that drive global impact, even in the most complex scenarios.

Registration for the 2025 International Grantmaking Symposium has closed.

What is the IGS?

The IGS convenes corporate and private foundations, practitioners, philanthropists, advisors, and attorneys dedicated to advancing global philanthropy. Attendees will leave the IGS better equipped to implement the rules and regulations of cross-border grantmaking to support innovative and novel models of partnership funding, unlocking more giving and giving more people around the world access to U.S. philanthropic capital.

On the Benefits of the International Grantmaking Symposium

"I'd describe it as an experience of learning, not just from great presenters, but also from the other delegates. The IGS really provided a space in which you could talk to others about their work and learn from best practices."
