2025 Call for Proposals

The 2025 Building Michigan Communities Conference (BMCC) will be held on May 14 & 15 in Lansing, Michigan. With our theme Partners in Progress, we seek to bring exciting opportunities and meaningful experiences for our attendees – which, in 2024, was approximately 1,200 housing financiers and developers, elected and public officials, asset managers, policy makers, and other industry stakeholders. We’re in search of innovative, thought-provoking content in the following formats:

  • Pecha Kucha (Japanese for chit-chat) style session, which is several short (i.e., <10 minute) unrelated presentations delivered back-to-back in a 60-minute breakout session. Pecha Kucha allows attendees to be introduced to a variety of topics in a short period of time.
  • 60-minute educational session

Proposals should align with one or more of the five topical tracks being offered at BMCC 2025:

  • Asset Management
  • Community and Economic Development
  • Homeownership Finance and Development
  • Preventing and Ending Homelessness
  • Rental Finance and Development

Proposals will be accepted through Friday, October 4, 2024. Notifications will be made by Friday, December 6, 2024.
