Advising Impact: Building the Ecosystem Behind the Future of Giving
Description
How can the future of giving be guided in ways that truly drive lasting impact?
A historic wealth transfer, estimated at over $5 trillion in the next two decades, is reshaping philanthropic giving today. A new generation of donors is eager to align wealth with values and measurable outcomes. Yet the ecosystem of advisors crucial to translate this ambition into impact is still evolving, somewhat fragmented even and facing important questions of scale and structure.
In this episode, AVPN Academy speaks with Kasey Oliver (Managing Director, Geneva Global) and Dien Yuen (Founder & CEO, Daylight) to explore who philanthropy advisors are, the role they play, and why their work is becoming increasingly critical. They reflect on emerging signals: the growing demand for skilled advisors, the frameworks that define professional practice, and the pivotal role Asia may play in shaping how philanthropic capital flows.
Together, the conversation surfaces both the opportunities and the gaps in this field, and why building a stronger advisory ecosystem will matter for the future of giving across generations and geographies.
