What are the most promising, impactful, and innovative solutions to address housing affordability in the US? What are the challenges and opportunities in scaling those solutions? The Ivory Prize Housing Innovation Summit will feature finalists from the 2024 Ivory Prize in Housing Affordability in the areas of construction and design, policy and regulatory reform, and finance. The summit will bring together entrepreneurs, public sector innovators, policymakers, researchers, and industry practitioners to discuss the best ideas for housing innovation and will be an opportunity to challenge how we think about disruptive innovation, learn from the leading entrepreneurs, and network with others in housing affordability.
This event is hosted by the Joint Center for Housing Studies and Co-sponsored by Ivory Innovations
