Following the conclusion of this election cycle, mission-aligned investors will be faced with an abundance of questions on how a new White House and Congress could affect their impact investing work. In this Virtual Learning Opportunity (VLO), we will hear observations and insights from experts at the intersection of policy and mission-aligned investing. Participants will gain a better understanding of how the field might shift, what to watch for in the coming months, and what steps philanthropy can take in the interim.

Join us on Nov 19 to discuss #impactinvesting and policy directions

At ASA, we're keeping a constant finger on the pulse of emerging non-degree models and how #philanthropy and #impactinvesting are paving the way for them. As you may recall, we announced our impact investment strategy back in 2022, in which we've pledged to invest up to $125 million in organizations increasing access to #careerreadiness learning. There are lots of different perspectives on how such investments should be approached. At last year's #ASUGSVSummit, Rilwan M., our VP of Mission Impact Investing, moderated a panel discussion focused on highlighting some of these models, featuring insights from various experts who are doing this important work. As we anticipate more of these discussions in 2024, take a look at some of the ideas and models these folks provided. Which ones stand out to you as the most promising? https://bit.ly/3u5Lj6C
