Our new Next Gen series highlights the work of the next generation of practitioners and how their contributions are shaping the future of Passive House.
This month's Next Gen episode features AJ Patton, Chairman & CEO of 548 Enterprise, a unified real estate & investment social impact firm that collates his capital, development, foundation and energy solutions. Named after the address of the affordable housing project AJ grew up in, 548 is a symbol of his personal commitment to bringing sustainable building technologies and innovation to underserved communities. He has actualized this commitment through $200 Million in mixed-use and residential sustainable housing developments, including two of the midwest's largest Passive House affordable housing portfolios as a winner of Chicago’s INVEST South/West initiative. AJ will discuss the path that has led him to working on these two different Passive House projects (both are seeking Phius Certification), and how he is create above-market returns and transforming communities all while positively impacting the environment.
The presentation will take place on Wednesday, March 8th at 9am PT / 12pm ET and will be followed by a lively Q+A session.
