Trusting Brands: Companies That Create and Inspire Change
Aimée Christensen, Joanne Bradford, David Denholm, Brian Norgard, Cameron Saul, Jeff Seabright
Representatives from SoFi, Kashi, Tinder, Bottle Top, and Unilever convened to discuss strategies for building trustworthy brands through radical transparency and collective action on social and environmental issues. The panelists detailed specific initiatives ranging from SoFi's policy advocacy for student loans and Unilever's supply chain transformations to Kashi's "Certified Transitional" mark and Tinder's expansion into older demographics. While consensus emerged on the necessity of long-term value creation over quarterly results, leaders also debated whether purpose-driven strategies must originate from top-level management or evolve through a "two-way street" with employees and consumers.

New Wave Giving: How the Next Generation of Philanthropists Is Rethinking the Model
Melissa Stevens, Matt Dalio, Leili Gerami, Justin Rockefeller, Cameron Saul, Darius Baxter
Driven by an estimated $27 trillion wealth transfer and complex global challenges, modern philanthropy is shifting from traditional grant-making toward scalable hybrid models that integrate for-profit mechanisms with social impact goals. Key figures like Matt Dalio, Cameron Saul, and Lely Jarami exemplify this evolution by leveraging supply chains, consumerism, and media platforms to address poverty and access issues while the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and new family office networks prioritize data-driven metrics over anecdotal evidence. This movement emphasizes intergenerational legacy and cross-border collaboration, positioning moral investment and early entrepreneurial engagement as central strategies for solving intractable problems through market-based solutions.

The Sustainable Investing Challenge: Innovative Plans from a New Generation
Paul Irving, Ryan Alam, Suzana Amoes, Dave Chen, Megan Strawther, Susanna Amos, Thomas Witt, David Bank, Amit Boren, Cameron Saul
The Morgan Stanley Sustainable Investing Challenge at the Milken Institute Global Conference saw the USC Master of Science in Social Entrepreneurship team, Terra Limpa, win by proposing a $30 million fund to revitalize Angola's agricultural sector by clearing landmines on 5,500 hectares of uncultivated arable land. The three-member team, led by Susanna Amos, plans to partner with UXO technicians and institutional buyers to secure land titles at deep discounts and cultivate staples like cassava for the Luanda market. This structured investment vehicle aims to diversify Angola's oil-dependent economy while generating social impact through a layered capital structure and a five-to-seven-year exit mechanism that transfers land ownership to local smallholders.
