Ivory Innovations is recognizing ambitious, feasible, and scalable solutions in construction and design, finance, and public policy and regulatory reform to address the nation’s affordability crisis with its third annual Ivory Prize.
The Top 25 finalists for the Ivory Prize—selected from 160 nominations from 39 states—feature new approaches to address rising material and labor costs, efforts that have helped communities and individuals respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, and solutions to affordability that seek to address historic inequalities related to race and housing.
“This year has shown how interlinked housing, and specifically affordability, is to our social and economic fabric,” said Abby Ivory, director of Ivory Innovations and Strategic Projects at the University of Utah’s David Eccles School of Business. “The 2021 class of our Top 25 are pioneering new approaches, breaking down historic barriers, and focusing on solutions that address multiple and complex problems through the lens of housing affordability.”
