August 27 at 1:30 pm ET - Urban Institute - Hybrid Event (Washington, DC)
What would it take to create an economy where more people can own assets, build wealth, and share in the value they help create—where capital remains rooted in place and communities have greater influence over their economic future?
Join practitioners, policymakers, funders, and researchers for an idea showcase on building a more locally owned economy. Highlighting both proven and emerging approaches, speakers will examine how communities can build assets, retain capital locally, and give residents a greater stake in their economic future.
