GX25 Preview: Tech, Tactics & the Power of Personal Connections
In this episode of The Generosity Experience, hosts Tim Sarrantonio and Sam Nyland preview everything you need to know before attending Generosity Xchange 2025. From a first look at the main stage and tech track to why this year’s theme—personal connections—matters more than ever, this conversation will help you show up ready to learn, connect, and grow.
They also reflect on how the event’s design centers real nonprofit voices over pitches, and why GX25 is becoming a must-attend virtual gathering for organizations of all sizes.
You’ll also hear:
What’s new on the Tech Stage: Sam shares how Neon One clients—from grassroots makerspaces to large arts orgs—will present real examples of donation forms, event strategies, and website tools that drive results.
Why this isn’t your average virtual conference: Tim explains how personal connections, peer learning, and zero sales pressure make GX25 feel more like a movement than a marketing play.
Behind-the-scenes stories: From swag delays (blame the pen) to speed networking logistics and Binghamton Philharmonic’s custom concert, you’ll hear how much intentionality goes into making this a joyful, accessible experience.
How to win at Community Bingo: Based on Neon One’s latest research, this interactive game on Day 2 helps attendees reinforce key findings on end-of-year giving, donor behavior, and nonprofit growth.
Big Ideas and Takeaways
Personal Connections Power Growth
At its core, GX25 is built to spark meaningful human connections—between nonprofit pros, between ideas and implementation, and between people and the tech they use to do good work.
Technology Should Elevate, Not Complicate
The Tech Stage focuses on client-led sessions that offer usable, tested strategies. Whether you're using Neon CRM, Arts People, or Neon Websites, the goal is simple: make your operations work smarter for your mission.
No Pitches. Just People.
Tim and Sam emphasize that this isn’t a thinly veiled sales event. It’s designed to be inclusive, tactical, and rich with peer-to-peer knowledge, whether you're new to Neon One or a longtime user.
