Invest in communities! But how? Join us for “musical chairs,” rotating between roundtables exploring three innovative approaches to moving capital from institutions into undercapitalized communities. At Table One, Honeycomb Credit and the DuPont Fund share their case study of how foundation capital matches crowdfunded loans to catalyze small businesses in Florida. At Table Two, CNote facilitates a conversation about the impact of investing corporate cash in CDFIs and MDIs. And at table three, the AmFam Institute answers questions about their first three years as a corporate social impact venture capital fund, investing dollars in startup founders with lived experience.
