Description:

With the recession ahead, what positive, long-term “patient” money flows will happen to ultimately change America’s direction and provide great opportunities for investors.

Three main areas stand out: Impact, Infrastructure, and Housing - Three tangible themes that when interwoven can create a new fabric for a long-term foundation for the U.S.

Join CAIA Chicago for an evening exploring the real build back opportunities that can truly impact America – not just investments, but within our social fabric that has been decaying for the last two decades.
