SPECIAL TIME / 1:30 PM EASTERN (or 10:30 AM in Scottsdale)

This month's Third Tuesday is a crossover event and will be co-hosted as a session during EEBA's High Performance Home Summit.

Decoding the "E" in ESG

A lot of things have shifted in the housing market over the last 6 months – changes in interest rates, consumer sentiment, and demand to name a few. At the same time, there has never been more investor interest and capital available for ESG-focused homebuilding and community development. The Inflation Reduction Act is also set to infuse more than $50 billion into clean energy technologies and improvements that will create ripple effects in housing. During this interactive session, we’ll focus on the bigger “E’s” in ESG – emissions + economics. Specifically, how to build greater resiliency into your business and (continue to) do well by doing good. We’ll explore:

• Who’s setting the bar, how high, and what we can do to ensure goals are realistic, measurable, and marketable
• What new sources of capital, paths to market, and revenue opportunities exist, and how to take advantage of them
• How to go beyond ticking the boxes for an ESG report – taking incremental steps forward and creating meaningful change
• How to make your business attractive for investment, mergers, and acquisition

Several perspectives will be represented — an investor looking to back ESG-focused initiatives; builders looking to set and deliver on greater sustainability standards, while unlocking new sources of capital; the federal government mandating higher performance; and an off-site provider looking to differentiate themselves as a high-performance building partner and a developer, in their own right.
