BII is excited to announce the ARC Fellowship Capstone Celebration & Showcase on April 29, 2026. This virtual event highlights the 5th cohort of ARC Fellows (2025–2026)—a national group of fund managers designing community-based, impact-driven investment funds.

Each team will share a brief spotlight: some may pitch their fund, while others reflect on lessons learned and key design decisions. This celebration showcases the diversity of pathways in impact investing.

The event is open to funders, investors, ecosystem partners, practitioners, and anyone interested in community-centered finance. Applications for the next ARC Fellowship open in June so if you want a preview of the ARC Fellowship experience, join us on April 29! Register here: luma.com/1b9t985g
