Midwest Impact Investing Showcase 2024

Midwest Impact Investing Showcase 2024

Hosted by Impact Engine, Supported by Builders Vision, The Chicago Community Trust, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, and the McKnight Foundation

For the past 10 years, Impact Engine has produced a Chicago Impact Investing Showcase, designed to help impact investors learn from others who deploy capital for impact across asset classes and geographies. Twice during that period, Impact Engine also compiled and shared the results of a landscape study of the Chicago impact investing community. Leveraging the success of the Chicago landscape reports and the Chicago Showcases, Impact Engine is extending the same concept to the broader Midwest, including the states of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.

We are excited to present the Midwest Impact Investing Showcase on Tuesday, October 1st from 5:00 - 8:00 PM. This showcase will highlight the work of impact investors across the Midwest through a series of fireside chats.

• Joe Aguilar, Chief Investment Officer, Illinois State Treasurer Michael W. Frerichs
• Stephanie Goodrid Lawson, Executive Director, McKinney Family Foundation (MFF)
