NextBillion - An Initiative of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan

The COVID-19 pandemic is an unprecedented global health and societal emergency affecting every corner of the U.S. While metropolitan areas have initially become hotspots for the virus, many American cities will be amongst the hardest hit places from a coronavirus recession.

The good news, as some have pointed out, is that local governments across the country have leapt into action, setting up emergency small business and nonprofit relief funds. So, how can cities overcome economic distress in a way that provides the opportunity for all residents—especially historically excluded populations—to benefit from and contribute to economic prosperity?

Please join us on April 15th @10.00-11.45 ET for a discussion of how city government, community leaders, philanthropy and local companies can protect vulnerable populations.

NOTE: Our platform has a capacity of 3000 attendees. If you are not able to join the webinar, you will automatically be sent a recording.
