Friends,

Kicking off this Sunday—only six days away—CoCap 2019 will bring us around Oakland and San Francisco to co-create a more equitable economy. 

With more than 200 leaders coming together, our goal is to develop actionable takeaways on topics such as funding strategies for cooperatives, indigenous community wealth-building, shifting health-capital, building rural ecosystems, and decolonizing access to capital.

We’re thrilled that speakers at this year’s event will include no less than eleven BALLE network leaders.

• Ana-Siria Urzua, Santa Ana Building Healthy Communities
• Anthony Chang, Kitchen Table Advisors
• D'Artagnan Scorza, Social Justice Learning Institute
• Erin Kilmer-Neel, Beneficial State Foundation
• Esther Park, Cienega Capital
• Harper Bishop, PUSH Buffalo
• Jessica Norwood, Runway Project
• Mariela Cedeño, Mandela Partners
• Stephanie Gutierrez, Hope Nation, LLC
• Tomás Durán, Concerned Capital
• Rodney Foxworth, BALLE
