Virtual Event: Unlocking Black Prosperity: Advancing Wealth through Small Businesses, Asset Development, and Community Investment – Dec 17

Posted by Urban Institute on December 16, 2025

Across the country, local leaders are driving bold, data-driven strategies to build inclusive economies and advance Black prosperity. A key pillar of this work is supporting Black-owned small businesses through expanded access to capital, increased capacity, and targeted policy changes. This virtual convening will explore innovative policies, community-driven initiatives, and cross-sector strategies that cities can implement to foster Black wealth creation, support asset building, and ensure long-term economic equity and prosperity.

Join the Urban Institute for a call to reimagine how cities invest in Black futures. Whether you’re a city official, a policy advocate, or a community changemaker, this session will equip you with the knowledge and tools to make data-driven decisions that foster lasting impact.

The event will take place December 17 from 12 to 1:15 PM.
