Turning NMTC Permanence into Long-Term Impact
The permanent extension of the new markets tax credit (NMTC) marks a new chapter for community development. Join Novogradac and industry leaders in San Diego to explore how permanence will reshape deal structures, enhance investor confidence and support the continued growth of long-term planning in underserved communities.
Network with developers, investors, community development entities (CDEs) and policymakers from across the nation as we chart the path forward in this new era of certainty for NMTC.
