John,

ASBC-SVC invite you to join us for three upcoming NEXT Economy Live sessions:

June 16 - Invest Strategically to Close the Wealth Gap: Converting Businesses into Employee Owned Enterprises ([link removed]) with Ed Whitfield and Brendan Martin (Seed Commons ([link removed]) ), Christina Jennings (Shared Capital Cooperative ([link removed]) ), Todd Leverette (Apis & Heritage Legacy Fund ([link removed]) I/DAWI), Jonathan Ward and David Hammer (ICA Group ([link removed]) / The Fund for Jobs Worth Owning ([link removed].) ), and Harold Pettigrew (Washington Area Community Investment Fund ([link removed]) ).

Study after study documents the powerful benefits achieved by employee owned enterprises for workers in terms of additional income and retirement savings as well as improved workplace conditions. This session will provide a brief overview of proven, compelling reasons for investing in business conversions to employee ownership. Most importantly, the seminar will showcase presentations by fund managers who will explain how you can support and invest in this fast
.growing asset class at an appropriate level for your portfolio

June 23 - Mind the (30x2030) Gap: Banking on Business Getting on Board on Time ([link removed]) with Joel Johnson (E.O. Wilson Biodiversity Foundation ([link removed]) ), Linda Behnken (Alaska Longline Fishermen’s Association ([link removed]) ), Marissa Merculieff and Lauren Divine (Aleut Community of St. Paul Island ([link removed]) ), and David Levine (ASBC ([link removed]) ), moderated by Annarie Lyles (Bio-Gist Ventures, LLC).

International support is growing to protect 30% of Earth by 2030, on the way to Half Earth. Thirty nations have already achieved the 30% goal and the USA is roughly half-way there, with more protected ocean than land. This session will explore why biodiversity matters for the private sector along with potential opportunities for business people to help close the gap. Also hear about ASBC’s newly launched initiative, Businesses for Conservation and Climate Action.

June 30 - Impact Investment in Latin America - Emerging Leaders and Opportunities ([link removed]) with Michelle Arevalo-Carpenter (IMPAQTO Fund, Ecuador ([link removed]) ), Vasco van Roosmalen (UTU Fund, Brazil ([link removed]) ) and Josh Knauer (JumpScale ([link removed]) ).

Latin America is one of the leading emerging markets for impact investment. There are many opportunities to invest money into privately held enterprises that are having a very positive impact on local communities, the environment and profit. New for-profit impact investment funds are emerging and showing that significant financial returns from non-public market investments can be generated while significantly helping people and protecting the planet. During this fireside-style chat facilitated by Josh Knauer from JumpScale, we’ll be exploring the overall landscape for impact investors in Latin America while digging into two funds that are currently active in the region.
