BALLE Videos
Here you’ll find BALLE’s staff, board, and Local Economy Fellows speaking on inspirational topics, dispensing practical advice, showing us around their local communities and businesses and giving us direct access to their thoughts on trends du jour.
These “BALLE EDGE Talks” are a great opportunity to bring together colleagues who missed the conference, but have an interest in digging deep on a particular issue; or start a ‘video club’ where Localists in your network pick a favorite talk and then host a Q&A discussion or fundraiser around that topic; or watch and learn anywhere, anytime for on-the-go inspiration and advice.
