SUMMARY:Shared Sips\, Shared Ownership: A Come-and-Go Holiday Happy Hour Cincinnati
DESCRIPTION:Sharing an event by our friends at Co-op Cincy. \n  \nWhen: Tuesday\, December 9th\, 5PM to 8PM\nWhere: Somerset\, 139 E McMicken Ave\, Cincinnati\, OH 45202 \nPull up a chair\, grab a drink\, and meet the people building a more democratic\, cooperative economy right here in Cincinnati. \nShared Sips\, Shared Ownership is a casual\, come-and-go happy hour hosted by Co-op Cincy… no agenda\, no formal program\, just good conversation and great company. \nThink of it as speed-dating a co-op: chat with worker-owners\, local entrepreneurs\, and community members who are proving that business can be done differently with shared prosperity at the center. \nWhether you stay for one round or all evening\, you’ll leave inspired by the power of cooperation and connection. \nLet them know you can make it (RSVP) \nP.S. Bring a friend\, a colleague\, or someone curious about co-ops\, the more\, the merrier. \nIn solidarity\,\nThe Co-op Cincy Team \nFounded in 2011\, Co-op Cincy nurtures an interconnected network of worker-owned businesses in Greater Cincinnati. Our goal: an economy that works for all. By expanding worker-ownership\, we support family-sustaining jobs\, provide ownership opportunities to people from historically marginalized groups\, and nurture businesses accountable to communities.

SUMMARY:Sustainable Finance: Values-Based Investing for Environmental and Financial Health
DESCRIPTION:Oct 14\, 2025\, 7:15am – 10:45am \n\nFull Details\, Agenda and Registration \nIn-person and virtual \nAs climate-related risks intensify and federal support for environmental initiatives wanes\, the need for sustainable investment has become more urgent than ever. In 2025\, the new U.S. administration has rolled back several federal climate policies\, including previous investments through the Inflation Reduction Act1\, prompting many firms to seek resilience through private capital and pragmatic sustainability strategies. Despite these challenges\, the sustainable investment market remains poised for growth. \nSustainable finance offers a powerful response. By aligning capital with climate goals\, investors—both individual and institutional—can drive meaningful change while securing long-term returns. According to Morgan Stanley\, 88% of investors are interested in portfolios that integrate sustainability\, and over half plan to increase their sustainable investments within the year2. \nOn October 14th\, 2025\, join the EPN in exploring three key domains of sustainable finance: \n\nIndividual investment portfolios: Learn how to align your personal finances with your environmental values.\nInstitutional-level investing and ESG: Discover how organizations are integrating environmental\, social\, and governance criteria into their strategies.\nFunding sustainability ideas: Understand how innovators can secure private capital to launch and scale climate solutions.\n\nA highlight of the event will be a case study presented by Dr. Steven Quiring\, professor of geography at Ohio State\, who founded StormImpact\, a weather analytics company that helps utilities prepare for extreme storms. StormImpact was recently acquired by Urbint\, a national leader in infrastructure resilience3\, providing a powerful example of how sustainable finance can turn academic research into real-world impact. \n\n\n\n\n\nCost:  $25 for professionals; free for students and virtual attendees\n\n\nLocation: Ohio Farm Bureau 4-H Center and virtually\n\n\nContact:\nHallie Stelzle stelzle.2@osu.edu\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFull Details\, Agenda and Registration
