The
PollyLabs
Forum
The PollyLabs Forum is our inner circle.
It’s made up of our board members, catalytic donors, strategic collaborators, and trusted advisors.
This invite-only community stays close to the work, challenges our thinking, and helps shape what next.
It’s how we’re building the village we need to scale, and how we give back to our ecosystem by connecting, informing, and growing together.
A space for meaningful exchange
The Forum is a front-row seat to how we’re reimagining the role of technology in making the world better, and an invitation to be part of the action.
Members get early access to our research, a window into the ventures we’re building, and curated ways to plug into what’s emerging. This might include advising founders, shaping new initiatives, or connecting with peers to collaborate on bold ideas.
Tachles: what to expect?
Forum gatherings, conversations, and offline communication are highly curated and designed to create value for everyone involved.
Members enjoy:
-
Bi-monthly briefings on new research, pilots, and venture updates
-
Invitations to intimate salons and in-person gatherings (the next is in September, NYC)
-
Curated opportunities to engage — from advising founders and shaping initiatives to joining boards or thought leadership efforts
-
A trusted circle of peers across tech, philanthropy, and social innovation
