What OZ Funds Should Do in 2026 to Prepare for OZ 2.0

Описание: With OZ 2.0 set to take effect on January 1, 2027, here’s why Opportunity Zone fund sponsors should be using 2026 to prepare — not pause.

Angela Hwang of RevGen Consulting joins Jimmy Atkinson of OpportunityZones.com to discuss marketing strategy, investor education, and why 2026 is not a “dead zone,” but a critical year for building visibility, trust, and momentum ahead of the next wave of capital.

Topics covered include:

✅ Why 2026 should not be treated as a “dead zone” for Qualified Opportunity Funds (QOFs).
✅ How fund sponsors can use education and thought leadership to stand out.
✅ Why content and long-term credibility matter more than paid ads.
✅ The importance of storytelling, track record, and brand trust for investors.
✅ Where investors are discovering OZ sponsors today, including search and AI tools.

This episode is especially relevant for Opportunity Zone developers, Qualified Opportunity Fund managers, project sponsors, and advisors thinking ahead to 2027 and beyond.
