National Opportunity Zones Virtual Forum
A free webinar hosted by NES Financial | JTC
October 28, 2020 | 8:00 A.M. PT / 11:00 A.M. ET
A landmark gathering of Opportunity Zone leaders from industry, communities, and government
The Opportunity Zones initiative was conceived with a simple goal in mind: to direct private capital toward distressed communities and businesses around the country, and to reward smart investments in the process. Now, nearly three years after the initial legislation was passed, leaders from every corner of the OZ universe — from community groups, to developers, to the White House — will meet to discuss the initiative’s progress and its future potential.
This two-and-a-half-hour virtual event will feature four panel presentations on topics as diverse as impact tracking, project structures, community engagement, legislative developments, and potential improvements to the program.
There’s no fee to attend, but the event is coming up quickly. Please reserve your place today!
