Los Angeles, a district council of the Urban Land Institute, will host actor, comedian, writer and producer Tiffany Haddish in a one-on-one chat with California State Treasurer Fiona Ma at the 23rd annual Urban Marketplace at 7:30 a.m. to noon Wednesday, March 22, at The California Endowment, 1000 N. Alameda Street, Los Angeles.

The pair will discuss “Connecting to Capital,” this year’s Urban Marketplace theme. The interactive event includes many other experts and stakeholders discussing ways to finance the revitalization of underserved communities of color.

“Though they come from different professions, Tiffany Haddish and Fiona Ma are two of the strongest voices advocating and creating women- and minority-owned spaces in the communities that need them most,” said April Sandifer, Urban Marketplace co-chair.
