About the event
Join the International Institute of Business Information for a day of empowerment and inspiration at Restoring Hope and Building Opportunities 2026 - let's make a difference together!
This year’s event explores how mission-driven partnerships can transform underused church assets into attainable housing, expanded economic mobility, and long-term community prosperity.
Across the country, churches and faith-based organizations hold underutilized land—one of the most promising yet often overlooked catalysts for community transformation. This national forum convenes faith leaders, investors, housing innovators, and industry experts to examine how these assets can be turned into high-quality, attainable, and independent housing that fosters stability and opportunity.
Through real-world development models, Opportunity Zone–based strategies, and effective cross-sector collaboration, the Summit charts a bold, scalable path forward for faith-based housing solutions nationwide.
