Making Missing Markets: Connecting Communities and Capital

On Wednesday, November 19, 2025, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York will host a hybrid event on fostering and improving markets channeling investments into under-resourced communities.

The event will explore strategies that help connect new sources of capital to community needs and solutions; scale existing sources of capital for communities; and connect previously unlinked buyers and sellers of services and products that address critical community challenges. Speakers and panelists will highlight the vital role of community-based interventions.

This will be of interest to leaders in finance, philanthropy, community development, and academia, and anyone else interested in creating new markets aimed at fostering opportunity-rich communities.

In-person registration closes on Friday, November 14, 2025.
