These businesses often create jobs, strengthen local economies, and build community wealth, but they frequently struggle to access the flexible financing needed to reach their next stage of growth. This conversation, recorded live at SOCAP25, explores how investors, fund managers, and financial institutions are working to close that gap.

    Place-Based Investing for Inclusive Communities

The panel explores what it actually takes to align endowments with mission, how internal teams are restructuring to break down silos, and why collaboration across institutions isn’t optional — it’s part of the responsibility.
