  • P R O G R A M M I N GThroughout the year, Concordia presents diverse programming to inspire

    conversation and spark collaboration. From our annual Summit, to private research

    briefings, to our year round engagement opportunities, our programming aims to

    connect Concordia members with social innovators while encouraging participation

    and contribution beyond our events.

    P A R T N E R S H I P I N D E XThe Concordia Partnership Index was developed as a tool for public, private, and

    nonprofit organizations to evaluate partnership opportunities. The Index ranks

    countries based on their readiness and need to engage in public-private partnerships

    (P3s). The inclusion of the need indicators sets the Index apart from other indices

    that measure P3 environments. While the success of a P3 depends on a country’s

    political and market structures, the Index recognizes that for a P3 to be truly

    impactful it must address a large-scale need.

    C A M P A I G N SA Concordia Campaign is a topic-driven effort where we narrow our programmatic,

    research, and networking focus. Each campaign will consist of a two to five-year

    commitment from Concordia that advances a specific cause. By establishing a

    private sector, a public sector, a nonprofit and an academic partner, each campaign

    employs the Concordia platform to drive focus and attention around an issue.

  • Since 2011, the Concordia Summit has been convening the world’s most prominent

    business, government, and nonprofit leaders to build effective partnerships for im-

    pact. The annual conference takes place in New York City and serves as a global af-

    fairs forum, where thought-leaders and innovators gather to examine the world’s most

    pressing challenges. Through our cross-sector panel discussions, interviews with

    prominent world leaders, and topic-specific breakout sessions, participants are able

    to both learn from industry experts and explore solutions with potential partners.

    O F F I C E H O U R SIn 2014, Concordia launched our Summit Office Hours a series of exclusive, closed-door

    meetings that allowed our Summit attendees to engage on a more intimate level with

    members of Concordia’s Leadership Council, former world leaders, and select Summit

    speakers. These private conversations, limited to groups of 5-10 individuals, offer a unique

    opportunity for our members to receive insight from some of the foremost thought leaders

    working to promote public-private partnerships today.

    R O U N D T A B L E D I S C U S S I O N SConcordia Roundtables are member exclusive discussion groups curated by Concordia that

    allow participants to interact and problem-solve with leading experts in the field, coming

    out with tangible next steps and ideas for future collaborations. These more narrowed

    conversations allow our speakers and members to delve deeper into timely topics and

    emerge from each meeting equipped to face the world’s greatest challenges.

    T H E I N D E XThe Concordia Partnership Index is a tool for stakeholders to better understand

    countries’ relative partnership environments. Using data from open, reliable sources,

    the Index provides an unbiased snapshot of where investment can be best absorbed.

    Governments, businesses, and nonprofits alike can use the Index to analyze where

    and in which sectors partnerships would be the most effective.

    P R I V A T E B R I E F I N G SConcordia has presented the Index to various stakeholders, including foreign

    embassies and the US Department of State. Members are afforded access to private
