Featured Plenary Sessions
The State of Housing: State and Federal Perspectives
*Wednesday, May 14 | 9:00–9:45 A.M.*
"Sponsored by Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis"
Even as we see continued uncertainty out of Washington, DC, a bipartisan, national consensus has been building around the need to create more affordable housing options. This panel, moderated by former Congressman Dan Kildee, will share insider perspectives on what's happening (and what's not) at the federal and state levels to help us tackle the opportunities and challenges we face.
Supply-side Interventions for Affordable Housing
*Thursday, May 15 | 8:30–9:15 A.M.*
"Sponsored by Rocket Community Fund"
The Brookings Institute reports the U.S. housing market was short 4.9 million units in 2023. How do we close this gap—fast? This dynamic panel will explore scalable solutions to boost affordable housing production in Detroit and beyond. One compelling case study: Tomorrow’s Housing Innovation Showcase in North Corktown, which sought to promote factory-built housing as a potential solution.
Just Announced: Lt. Governor to Deliver Closing Remarks!
