Industry Partners

While in the past GAIM events have been closed to the media, this year, GAIM is exploring opening the event to representatives of respected media outlets to cover our NY and FL conferences. Our purpose in allowing only select media to attend is to widen the debate and more broadly disseminate our speakers' ideas while preserving the same level of open discussion that has become the hallmark of GAIM conferences.

Media will only have access to some portions of the conference and must agree to abide by a set of strict ground rules that GAIM has set to protect the privacy of our speakers and maintain attendees' ability to speak with candor. GAIM will only permit media coverage of panels and keynotes with permission of the speakers and will honor the requests of any who prefer to give their remarks in closed sessions.

For more information and/or to become a media partner please contact Ali Saland at +1 646 895 7309 or asaland@iirusa.com

    • RFK Compass Program

      Robert F. Kennedy boldly faced tough problems and challenged the comfortable and complacent. To realize his dream of a more just and peaceful world, his family and friends founded a living memorial in 1968. Today the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights is dedicated to advancing human rights. Through long-term partnerships and cutting edge methods, we assist advocates who have won the RFK Human Rights Award. We support investigative journalists and authors who bring light to injustice through the RFK Book and Journalism Awards. Our Speak Truth to Power program educates the public and provides students with a toolkit for action to create change in the classroom, the community, nationally and internationally.


      In addition, as part of a continuing program of fi duciary education, the RFK Compass Program works with institutional investors to advance a discussion of the connections among investment performance, fi duciary duty and public interest issues to optimize risk-adjusted rates of returns and address current and future global challenges.
