Equity and inclusion is a passion for Ernst Valery. A successful real estate developer with properties in Maryland, D.C., Pennsylvania, Virginia, California, and New York., Ernst is committed to development without displacement. He is also active in social entrepreneurship and volunteer work, including a collaboration with MIT CoLab and efforts incubating businesses around the world, with a focus on alleviating poverty and increasing the earning potential of low income individuals, families, and communities.
We are grateful that the work of our Developers, Investors, and the Aequo Fund as a whole does not go unnoticed. Leading publications have spoken about Aequo's impact within our target communities and beyond
