Stanford Social Innovation Review
invites you to a groundbreaking one-day conference that will bring
together the leaders of 16 global online giving marketplaces with

opportunities exist to shape and accelerate this phenomenon?
Speakers at Online Giving Marketplaces will include: Katherine Fulton,
president of the Monitor Institute; Premal Sha, president of Kiva;
Randy Komisar, partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and
former virtual CEO of Global Giving; William Meehan, senior director of
McKinsey & Company and lecturer at the Stanford Graduate School of
Business; and many other experts in the field of philanthropy. The
program also provides plenty of time for discussion and networking on
