Impact Investing Bootcamp
Final session
This was the final session in a series of workshops focused on creating a common understanding of impact investing for economic development practitioners, anchor institutions and funding organizations in Texas. The series was hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas and began with a kickoff session in December 2024.
Participants learned about findings from a landscape analysis of the Texas impact capital ecosystem conducted by the Dallas Fed and Avivar Capital. They also provided input on potential next steps for interested partners.
