Introducing Proximate Investing: Stories for a New Economy

​Join us for the launch of Proximate Investing, a new editorial series from Proximate Press.

​The rules of the economy are myopic. But emerging models of community-controlled capital are helping people reclaim decision-making power over the financial forces that shape their lives.

​Proximate Investing explores how communities are reshaping capital — from participatory investing and donor collaboratives to conversion foundations and CDFIs. Together, we’ll examine what “due diligence 2.0” looks like when communities set the terms of investment, and how a new economy is being built from the ground up.

​At this launch event, you’ll hear from the Proximate team about the vision behind Proximate Investing, learn about the writing of early stories in the series, and connect with peers working to shift capital, power, and finance.

​Connect with fellow practitioners, storytellers, and strategists who are reimagining how we talk about capital, power, and finance. Hear from our team about the vision behind the series, get a preview of our first pieces, and learn how you can collaborate in shaping what's next.

​This event is first and foremost a space to connect with peers—practitioners, storytellers, and strategists who are working toward a new economy. We’ll share early stories from the series, but the real purpose is to meet others in this field, hear what they’re learning, and spark new collaborations.
