About The Organization

The Momentus Capital branded family of organizations - which includes Capital Impact Partners and CDC Small Business Finance and Momentus Securities (an SEC-registered broker-dealer, MSRB-registered, FINRA/SIPC member) - are transforming how capital and investments flow into communities to provide people access to the capital and opportunities they deserve.

We are working to reinvent traditional financial systems and advance locally-led solutions that create economic mobility and generational wealth. Through our continuum of financial, knowledge, and social capital, we offer a comprehensive package of loan products, impact investment opportunities, training and business advising programs, and technology solutions.

Our holistic and streamlined approach offers comprehensive solutions for small business entrepreneurs, real estate developers, community-based organizations, and local leaders at every stage of growth, from inception to expansion. When these leaders have the opportunity to succeed, their communities, their residents - and our country - thrive.

Position Summary

Capital Impact, seeing the need to offer pathways for real estate developers to grow and succeed to vision and deliver impactful housing and other developments, created the Equitable Development Initiative (EDI).

Capital Impact began the EDI in Detroit and expanded it to the greater Washington DC region, San Francisco Bay area, Dallas, Atlanta and Austin. We are launching the EDI in Chicago later in 2025. To date Capital Impact has graduated over 300 alumni since the EDI began in 2018, and has an additional 42 participants currently in programs geared for more advanced developers.
