Unleashing Catalytic Capital and Resources for Durable Change

When it comes to making equitable, lasting changes at scale, early-in, subsidy, and risk-adjusted capital can be the key to long term success. Join this lively and interactive session and use real-time examples to learn how foundations, CDFls, and other field builders have engaged with entrepreneurs, community-led development efforts, BIPOC anchor institutions such as churches and HBCUs, and local government. Using catalytic capital and impact investing is often the key to unleashing additional investment that fits the needs of communities. Participants can workshop solutions and share resources from their own communities.
