Bring together leaders from philanthropy, sport, business, government, academia and the social sector to explore how philanthropy is evolving beyond traditional approaches.
Event details
PBC convenes philanthropists, thought leaders, social entrepreneurs, policy-makers, academia and NGOs from around the world to exchange views, forge long term cross-sector partnerships and co-create practical solutions that betters cities and societies.
Marking its 10th anniversary, PBC 2026 adopts the theme “Leaping for Impact”. Inspired by the Olympic values of excellence, friendship and respect, and the Paralympic values of courage, determination, inspiration and equality, the forum explores what philanthropy can learn from sport: discipline, focus, resilience, teamwork, performance management and continuous improvement.
As convener of PBC, The Hong Kong Jockey Club embodies the link between sport, entertainment and its charitable mission. At this forum, sport is viewed more broadly: not only as inspiration, but as a driver of inclusion, shared purpose and global solidarity.
PBC 2026 brings together leaders from philanthropy, sport, business, government, academia and the social sector to explore how philanthropy is evolving beyond traditional approaches. Discussions address trends and challenges shaping philanthropy today, including cross-sector collaboration, systems change, new approaches to capital and the capabilities needed to deliver lasting outcomes. The forum also tackles key issues on the social impact agenda: health, well-being for older adults, urban poverty alleviation, heritage conservation, youth development, climate resilience and inclusive employment.
As Asia emerges as a centre of philanthropic innovation, and Hong Kong bridges East and West, PBC 2026 provides a platform for practical learning, new partnerships and deeper reflection on the future of impactful philanthropy.
