About this listen

To satisfy federal and state diversity requirements, how do developers get connected with minority and / or women-owned firms for construction projects?

Learn about how this tech platform is bringing something new and innovative to this process.

Tough Leaf was a 2023 Ivory Prize for Housing Affordability Finalist for Construction and Design.
