SOCAP15 Preview: Funding What Matters in Our Local Economies

Posted by on September 8th, 2015

In just four short weeks, we will be convening those passionate about the intersection of money and meaning in San Francisco for the flagship Social Capital Markets (SOCAP) conference. Those interested in impact investing, particularly at the local level, won’t want to miss a chance to get a sneak peek at one of the SOCAP15 themes, Neighborhood Economics, with this year’s preview event. Join us September 22 at 6pm at San Francisco’s The Commonwealth Club for a panel featuring one of SOCAP’s founders, Kevin Jones.

Funding What Matters in Our Local Economies will feature leading investors and philanthropists who see neighborhood economics as an antidote to “two pocket thinking” - where giving and financial-return investments happen separately, often in contradiction to each other. Hear how cities and small towns become more resilient when residents not only see where resources are being allocated, but contribute to the decision making about priorities and investing strategies.

Panelists:

Kevin Jones, Founder, Good Capital; Co-founder and Convener, Social Capital Markets

Jenny Kassan, Capital Raising Coach; Former CEO, Cutting Edge Capital

Jonny Price, Senior Director of Kiva Zip, Kiva.org

Kevin O’Malley, President TechTalk/Studio – Moderator
