The Exponent Philanthropy Annual Conference is an in‑person gathering for lean funders (foundations with few or no staff). The 2026 conference runs November 11‑13 in Portland, Oregon. Attendees can learn from peers, share practices, network, and access sessions, meals, and other activities. The event offers exhibit and sponsorship opportunities (contact [email protected]) and a new scholarship program covering registration for up to seven participants, funded by the Reinberger Foundation. Scholarships target newly established, all‑volunteer, or small‑asset foundations and individuals new to board, donor, or staff roles; applicants must apply by August 29 2025. Additional resources include conference guidelines, participant guidelines, and a contact person (Althea Georgantas). The conference is part of a broader suite of programs such as the Catalytic Leadership Academy, webinars, and podcasts, all aimed at supporting catalytic philanthropy.
