The Danville Pittsylvania Chamber of Commerce chose to locate its administrative offices on our campus a few years ago and also hosts all of its major events in the IALR Conference Center. “There are so many economic development relationships within this building to help recruit new business and industry to our region," said Anne Moore-Sparks, President and CEO. "It’s special and convenient.” More than 15 organizations have a presence on the IALR campus. Learn more: https://bit.ly/4fnxFNC

A great day at the Northern Housing Consortium's annual summit.  Plenty of substance and pragmatism among the excellent speakers – from policymakers and practitioners, to regulators and residents. Some memorable soundbites too: 🚀 Devolution can be “rocketfuel” for affordable housing in the north 🌹 Things might look rosy from the top… but subcultures within your organisation and stigma towards tenants mean bad practice can go unchecked 🐶 Be careful of pet projects and throwing good money after bad – too often innovation is treated as an end in itself 🏙️ In the north, "it’s not just new towns, we need renewed towns too” ⬆️ “The north has a different kind of housing problem – social rent is even more important here” 💰 “We can deliver but there is a big price tag… we shouldn’t be appeasing” ❌ After years of pressure, the sector’s “room for manoeuvre is narrow, and the room for error is narrower still” 📈 We’ve only ever achieved national housing targets when the public and social sectors built at scale 🏗️ “More room to build doesn’t necessarily mean more homes will be built” – and planning reform alone isn’t going to fix things Thanks to everyone who played a part in organising and contributing.  A day well spent and lots for the sector to ruminate on as we head into 2025.  Tracy Harrison Kate Maughan Tracy Brabin, Mayor of West Yorkshire Mark Easton Catherine Little MBA CIHCM Mark Armstrong James Clark Tom Lamb CIHCM MCIOB Ali Johnson Natasha Kendall

#veteransuicideawareness #ruralinnovation #artificialintelligence Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade this is trailblazer stuff and much needed. 🌱 This policy MOU contains the potential to 📌 Close the digital divide, 📌 Bring diversity to the #colorado tech industry, and 📌 Make grants and innovation accessible to those who need it most - small businesses and rural communities. #Colorado is home to 400,000+ veterans and a very vibrant veteran entrepreneur community - this MOU has merit. But it’s not all peachy in #colorado ✅ for over a decade, Colorado has been a top ten annual contender 🏆 for state with the highest rate of veteran suicide - regardless of the justification, this nonsense needs to stop. You break , You Buy. ✅ the Denver #HUDVASH veteran homeless reintegration program has significant process issues the must be addressed - immediately. Mike Johnston ✅ Veterans want to help, but there is divide driven by a lack of understanding, acceptance and awareness of the modern veteran and what occurred in the #iraq and #afghanistan wars. 🎤 “Thank you for your service’ is now even more weird as political lip service has rendered it an insult. Also, keep the 💊 💊 💊 and the policy to yourself, and let’s work together to figure this out. 🫡There is a solution - Make cognitive behavioral Therapy (CBT) training mandatory for transitioning active duty and let’s start this process here in #Colorado Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory #community #understanding #veterancommunity
