For 20 years, the Technology Association of Grantmakers has brought together the people who power philanthropy through technology. This November, join us in Chicago as we celebrate two decades of innovation, collaboration, and community—and help shape what's next.
Technology in mission-driven organizations is filled with real-world challenges, constant change, and meaningful tradeoffs. The people navigating that complexity deserve more than another technology conference—they deserve a community built for them. TAG's Annual Conference is where the philanthropy technology community comes together to learn, collaborate, solve problems, and leave inspired. Whether you're a longtime member or joining us for the first time, there's a place for you here—and a seat waiting for you in the room.
For two decades, TAG has been the only global community dedicated exclusively to supporting technology and operations professionals serving philanthropy. Each year, leaders from across North America, the United Kingdom, and Europe gather to exchange ideas, tackle shared challenges, and build relationships that strengthen organizations long after the conference ends. Together, we're advancing human-centered technology that helps philanthropy achieve greater impact.
This year, there's never been a better time to be in the room.
Whether you're exploring emerging technologies, rethinking operations, building stronger data practices, or leading organizational change, you'll find the conversations, connections, and practical insights that matter most. Join peers who understand your work, celebrate TAG's 20th anniversary with us, and be part of the community shaping the future of technology in philanthropy.
Be in Chicago. Be in the room. Be part of the conversation. Be part of what's next.
