FAQ: The Housing Summit Detroit Economic Mobility Breakfast

It's a working breakfast convening senior leaders from policy, community development, philanthropy, finance, and technology to center housing as a primary driver of economic opportunity in Detroit and develop implementable strategies including capital stacks, policy tools, and partnerships.

The event is scheduled for November 18, 2025, from 8:30-11:30 AM at the San Morello Private Room in the Shinola Hotel, Detroit, with doors opening at 8:15 AM.

The Housing Summit is organizing the event, with speakers including Karen L. Gamba (Founder), Amy Hovey (MSHDA CEO), Blair C. Smith (Milken Institute), Dennis Ho (Hong Kong RIBA Chair), and leaders from organizations like Develop Detroit, Gilbert Family Foundation, Detroit Justice Center, and MiWealth.

As stated by MSHDA CEO Amy Hovey, the summit serves as a catalyst for collaboration that brings together state and local partners to align tools, capital, and community leadership to advance equitable housing opportunities across Detroit.

The moderated roundtable focuses on practical, Detroit-ready solutions across three core themes: Economic Mobility (how housing strategies improve income stability and build credit), with additional themes implied from the content focusing on housing as a driver of economic opportunity.

This Detroit edition builds on earlier Housing Summit gatherings in Hong Kong (May 2025) that discussed affordability, innovation, design, AI in housing, and modular design, and New York City (September 2025) that explored affordable housing as convergence of impact and opportunity.

The 25-person working breakfast includes: 8:15-8:30 AM registration, 8:30-9:00 AM networking, 9:00-9:05 AM welcome remarks, 9:05-9:15 AM video keynote by Dennis Ho, 9:15-10:45 AM moderated roundtable working session, and 10:45-11:30 AM plated breakfast & networking.

The event is now at capacity, but a waitlist is open for civic leaders, investors, and practitioners who wish to engage with the growing Housing Summit network.

The event convenes senior leaders from policy, community development, philanthropy, finance, and technology sectors, including representatives from housing authorities, foundations, investment firms, legal organizations, and community development corporations.
