NonProfit PRO is thrilled to announce the third annual BridgeTECH at the 2025 Bridge to Integrated Fundraising & Marketing Conference. Once again, NonProfit PRO will co-present BridgeTECH alongside the Direct Marketing Association of Washington (DMAW) and the Association of Fundraising Professionals, Washington, D.C. (AFP-DC). The call for papers for BridgeTECH is open now through Friday, Oct. 18, 2024.
“We are thrilled to be working with the Bridge Conference team to co-present the BridgeTECH conference for the third year in a row,” Chris Lyons, president of NonProfit PRO, said. “The second iteration of the event in 2024 was a huge success, and the upcoming event will introduce nonprofits to the latest knowledge about the technology that is such a critical piece of their operations. To create a stellar lineup of tech-focused content for BridgeTECH 2025 during the 20th annual Bridge Conference, we are seeking presentation ideas from nonprofit technology experts and enthusiasts.”
Marking its 20th anniversary in 2025, the Bridge Conference is being held from July 30 to Aug. 1, 2025, at the Gaylord National Hotel in National Harbor, Maryland, just outside of Washington, D.C. The conference will highlight the theme “Powering Progress,” reflecting the always-changing fields of integrated marketing and fundraising. As such, the Bridge Conference is seeking submissions that highlight innovation and progress.
The BridgeTECH event will include a full day of immersive sessions on Wednesday, July 30, 2025, followed by continuing sessions during the Bridge Conference on Thursday, July 31, 2025, and Friday, Aug. 1, 2025. These sessions will offer attendees a glimpse at the latest innovations in fundraising and marketing that are shaping nonprofits’ fundraising efforts and donor outreach initiatives.
Submissions for BridgeTECH should focus on the technologies, strategies and insights you can provide to the nonprofit industry. Be sure to demonstrate how these tech solutions and strategies can directly support fundraising and donor outreach efforts in your submission.
Your submission should consist of original content and showcase case studies that exemplify your success — and some of your less successful work — to give your colleagues and other nonprofit professionals the resources they need to navigate the nonprofit industry and make an impact.
The Bridge Conference also announced submissions are open for its fundraising and marketing tracks, advanced executive track, pre-conference workshops, the third annual Faith & Fundraising Forum, the political and advocacy tracks and the international track. These submissions are also open until Oct. 18, 2024.
