Winsight Gives Back

At Winsight, it is important to us to give back to the community. That’s why we include a charitable element in four of our leadership conferences, known as our Social Enterprise Partnership. At these events, we partner with non-profit organizations with ties to the industry. Our goal is to provide them with a platform to raise awareness and funds, create networking opportunities and, ultimately, help those in need. Since the inception of this giving model in 2006, Winsight has supported over 20 non-profits and nearly $3 million (and counting).
