About the Food Trails Impact Investors Lab:
In 2022, Food Trails invited impact investors to participate in the project’s Investors Living Lab, together with municipalities. The Investors Lab has served as a monthly opportunity to exchange on and shape the impact investment environment in urban food systems.
Food Trails will share findings from its Impact Investors Lab, with cities and others working to support sustainable food systems at the December webinar on ‘Impact investing for urban food policy actors and stakeholders.’
You can find the upcoming Impact Investor Living Lab meeting schedule, as well as previous meeting notes here.
