The prevailing moral hunger of our day is the desire to repair historic and economic systemic inequities. There are new financial innovations emerging that value justice. Neighborhood Economics is working to connect and catalyze that movement.
Our events bring together streams that typically don’t flow together:
People already working to create thriving, inclusive neighborhoods, local leaders working on community economic development, impact investors who understand the cost of doing good, catalytic foundations and other mission-focused funders, people investing to support local businesses, minority entrepreneurs whose work needs catalytic capital, and people of faith who want to build a more just economy.
Asheville, North Carolina, renowned for its vibrant arts scene and historic architecture, serves as the perfect backdrop for our conference. Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville combines a rich cultural heritage with a progressive spirit, making it a hub for innovation and community-driven change. This dynamic city not only inspires creativity and connection but also embodies the spirit of local entrepreneurship and ecological stewardship. Join us in Asheville to experience how this unique city fosters an environment where economic and social transformations are not just envisioned but actively realized.
