Special and Extension Programs Universities are being challenged by their traditional funders -the state - to become ‘enterprises’ with new connections to the labour market, their business and social community. State funding is increasingly restricted or available for specific state priorities. For private universities, of course, funding has always been a problem. Everybody today has a cash flow issue. Everybody needs to become their own institutional ‘entrepreneur’. This workshop is a practical introduction to fundraising for universities: what types of fundraising are there? What types of fundraising should you be doing? How does one start? How do you close the deal? What type of infrastructure do you need to get what type of money? And, of course, how do we turn our ‘ad hoc’ fundraising attempts into something strategic that will help the institution in the long term as well? This workshop intends to focus particularly on Major Gifts, Corporate Fundraising and Research Management, though there is some flexibility depending on the interests of the participant group.
Speakers: Marta Lejkovski (Richmond Associates, UK); Pusa Nastase (CEU)
