The theme is financial recovery - how the nonprofit sector can position itself to consolidate the sustainability of its finances, develop more effective models for service provision and continue to cope with the reverberations of the Global Financial Crisis.

Key topics this year include:

  • Informed and realistic commentary on the economic outlook and how this relates to the nonprofit sector.
  • The inside story on how the Good Start consortium bid, won and funded the acquisition of nearly 700 A.B.C. Learning child care centres.
  • How social networking has become the growth engine in nonprofit fundraising.
  • An extensive panel session on the challenges of valuing the nonfinancial aspects of nonprofit services and the causes they address.
  • Detailed research discussion on sector finance trends and expectations.
  • A panel of leading corporates will set out their near term plans for community support and engagement.

This is a proven event attracting 800 delegates Australia-wide who have consistently reported around 90% satisfaction rate. The forum responds to feedback, rotates its topics and each year it evolves with the spirit of the sector. It is inexpensive and is held in well-catered CBD venues.

If you are looking for strategic insights into the sector's financial future, please come along. Our five year's of feedback suggests you will not be disappointed.
