Kami has designed and led flagship philanthropic programmes at Tate and the Royal Academy of Arts (London), managed grants from private foundations such as New Carlsberg Foundation, and advised individual patrons and corporates on their giving strategies — most recently orchestrating international funding for the Getty’s PST Art, La Biennale di Venezia, and Tate’s Electric Dreams exhibition and Digital Intimacies learning programme (their most ambitious show to date, tracing the intersection of art & technology between the 1950s and the early 1990s.)
Her approach is grounded in systems thinking and social finance — drawing on postgraduate research at the LSE in novel funding models, private philanthropy, and theory of change.
As Board Member of the Initiative pour la Liberté Artistique — the Swiss sister organisation of the Artistic Freedom Initiative — Kami contributes deep expertise from the blue-chip art and culture sector to an organisation supporting artistic freedom and human rights globally. In this role, she focuses on European growth, developing new partnerships, funding streams, and programme expansion.
