2023 DevelUP: affordable housing workshop

Building developers, diversity and communities from the ground up

Baker Tilly recently hosted our second annual DevelUP: affordable housing workshop. This educational and networking event is designed to help underrepresented developers conquer the real estate industry, scale their business and build diverse teams. Underrepresented developers and allies gathered in Atlanta this year to network and learn from experienced professionals. As our most successful DevelUP yet, Baker Tilly provided two full days of education, unique networking opportunities, opening remarks from Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens and a professional headshot photo booth. Watch this year's highlight video to commemorate the event and view the event presentation.

This year's conference focused on foundational and forward-thinking sessions, including the following topics:

  • Social and racial equity gains in real estate
  • Identifying and implementing LIHTC
  • How ESG is impacting commercial real estate
  • Capacity building and capital access
  • New Markets Tax Credits and local incentives
  • Best practices for partnership
  • Environment sustainability and design considerations
  • Healthy outcomes
  • Private and public partnerships
  • How to scale and operationalize your business
