Overview

What will the next economy look like for Greater Baltimore? How can we work together to attract new investment and growth and expand opportunity for all residents of the region? These are the questions at the heart of the four-part series Redefining Capital sponsored by the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and a host of public and private partners.

The series will kick-off on April 26 with the first session: The Next Economy: Redefining Human Capital and Enhancing Economic Growth. The session will discuss the release of The Brookings Institution’s ambitious new study that challenges the popular view of Greater Baltimore as a struggling post-industrial region and focuses instead on the kind of growth and strategies that can be fostered to create an “opportunity-rich” regional economy. Panel discussions on the region’s next economy, building human capital, and learning from experiences in other U.S. regions will follow.

Please also mark your calendars for future dates in this exciting forum series:

• June 7 – Redefining Social Capital: Attracting and Supporting New Immigrants
• September 13 – Redefining Financial Capital: Investing in Communities
• November 8 – Redefining Economic Assets: Anchor Institutions as Engines of Growth

Audience

Nonprofit organizations, community development professionals, financial institutions, CDFIs, intermediaries, educators, foundations, and local leaders in government, business and the Greater Baltimore community should plan to attend.
