Discover how to create powerful strategic partnerships with Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) to more effectively connect rural entrepreneurs with vital capital resources. Learn to better utilize the tailored products and services offered by CDFIs, including agricultural financing, technical assistance, microloans, underwriting, policy advocacy, and impact investing, to foster local growth, nurture talent, and unlock new business opportunities throughout these underappreciated regions. Explore actionable insights from our diverse panel of experts to apply throughout your community's interconnected region.
