DETAILS

Welcome to TRIIBE Talk, where we alternate between current & next-gen changemakers sharing insights on one of our key sectors (food, water, shelter, health, & education).

In this TRIIBE Talk, we'll discuss the role of education in supporting future entrepreneurs & philentrepreneurs, especially at a time when the value of education is being called into question.

TRIIBE Talk alternates between current & next-gen changemakers to demonstrate that age doesn't impact the quality of one's perspective, nor the work they're doing to create change.

Speakers include:

Dr. Cheng Davis (President, Forum For World Education)

Ben Christensen (Head of Partnerships, AI 2030)

Mahir Laul (CEO, Velric)

Jacob Shulman (Founder, Trivium Venture Network)

Kyle Matthys (Founder & CEO, TRIIBE) - Moderator

Schedule:

6:00 - 6:30 Welcoming Guests

6:30 - 6:45 Opening Remarks

6:45 - 7:30 TRIIBE Talk: Education

7:30 - 9:30 Closing Remarks & networking

We will have a fully stocked bar, & in Copacabana fashion, the space will open up into a dance floor after the event is complete.

TRIIBE exists to help next-gen nonprofit founders continue their work.
Youth-led organizations receive a fraction of philanthropic funding, & most early-stage nonprofits lose momentum before they ever reach scale.

The biggest drop-off isn't inspiration. It's structure.
When founders turn 18 & enter college, time disappears, funding dries up, & the support systems that helped them grow no longer exist. That transition quietly ends thousands of high-potential organizations.

TRIIBE is the missing pipeline for social impact.
We operate a fellowship built for nonprofit founders, a clear path through college with the three things early-stage founders actually need: funding, mentorship, & community.

Our cohorts are small by design because we invest deeply.
Each TRIIBE branch has cohorts of five nonprofit founders with real operating experience, each already running their foundation for an average of six years. Several have already been recognized as Forbes 30 Under 30, George Bush Points of Light Fellows, & L'Oral Women of Worth.
