Dozens of impoverished and low-income areas around the Bay Area are eligible for investment under a new federal Opportunity Zone (OZ) program. The Bay Area Council and KPMG are co-hosting this morning’s event in a series of regional forums focused on bringing together diverse stakeholders to discuss how opportunity zones can be leveraged regionally to produce positive outcomes across infrastructure, business and real estate, and generate a wide range of job-creating economic activity. This specific forum will gather leaders from across the country, state and region to address key public sector issues related to OZs, strategies for organizations and investors that are not directly incentivized by the tax incentives, and considerations for adopting best practices in this emerging market.

The Bay Area Council & KPMG would like to give special thanks to sponsors Confluence Philanthropy and Toniic Network for supporting this morning’s program.
