A great first day at #SOCAP24 - so many good conversations, and such a well curated place. So pleased that our Lincoln Institute of Land Policy ACI initiative was able to join SOCAP Global Sorenson Impact as an Innovation partner.

Excited to be in San Antonio for the Accelerator For America advisory council meeting. Spent the morning exploring the Pearl District, and now digging into the first session. Great to hear from Mayor Ron Nirenberg about San Antonio's progress in building the future for San Antonio!

This is worth a listen - our Lincoln Institute of Land Policy Center for Geospatial Solutions #WhoOwnsAmerica team is doing cutting edge work building knowledge of ownership patterns, & our ACI initiative helps communities figure out what to do about it - and how to pay for it. #communityinvestment #inpactinvesting
