What is the Collaborative Community Summit all about?

The Collaborative Community Summit is a day-long convening designed to inspire collaboration in the social sector through community-building activities, inspirational guest speakers, interactive presentations, and robust peer-learning opportunities.   

This welcoming and accessible event is intended to plant the seeds of a culture of collaboration and an abundance mindset in the greater Austin area. We believe that when we all come together to work in collaboration, we can solve our community’s greatest challenges.

What can we expect?

Our time together will be rooted in our commitments to joy, belonging, anti-racist practices, and trust-building. Attendees will leave inspired, connected, aware of potential collaborative partners, and have tangible ideas and examples of ways they could incorporate the principles and activities of collaboration into their strategy, projects and organizations.

Who is Austin Together?

Austin Together is an Austin, TX-based initiative that enables sustained collaboration between nonprofits, businesses, and governmental agencies. We provide a proven 3-step process that includes guidance and funding so each project has the tools they need to successfully pursue collaborations. We believe sustained collaborations strengthen nonprofits to create better outcomes for the people of Central Texas. Since 2019, we have awarded more than $1.5 million in grants to support more than 90 organizations to develop collaborations.
