    ?? Registration is now open for the 2024 SBAN Summit on Community Ownership on November 14! REGISTER: https://lnkd.in/egeMrCSg Community ownership can provide stability for small businesses and mitigate commercial gentrification pressures. At the summit, we’ll explore individual and collective ownership models that support BIPOC- and immigrant-owned small businesses and help them stay in place, including commercial cooperatives, community land trusts, community investment trusts, and commercial property acquisition funds. The event will feature panel discussions, working sessions, and keynotes by small business advocates, policymakers, and other stakeholders involved in community ownership efforts across the United States and abroad. We’ll discuss community ownership as an anti-displacement strategy, develop collective policy priorities, and outline how to advance this strategy at multiple scales. The summit will also feature insights from SBAN research, case studies, and working groups. Note: The event is open to SBAN members and non-members. Register now and join the conversation!
