Charity Times Conference
Building resilient charities for a changing world

20 May 2027
America Square Conference Centre

Join us for the Charity Times Conference, exploring how AI, digital innovation and emerging technologies are reshaping the charity sector. As organisations face growing financial pressures, changing public expectations and rapid technological advancement, the opportunities to rethink traditional ways of leading a charity have never been greater.

This year's conference will bring together charity leaders, technology, financial and fundraising experts to examine how digital transformation can strengthen charities, unlock new income opportunities and support long-term sustainability.

Alongside the opportunities, speakers will consider the challenges of technological change, including governance, risk, ethics and the importance of keeping people at the heart of innovation. Through expert-led panels, live interviews, case studies and peer-to-peer networking, attendees will gain practical insights into the technologies, strategies and leadership approaches that will shape the future of the sector.
