Zoned for Opportunity
Monday, April 8, 2025
Thursday, April 10, 2025
Presented by L. Charlie Oliver,
Founder & CEO
The Oliver Bennett Agency
From the Bronx to boardrooms, Charlie is the powerhouse behind the Zoned for Opportunity Summits, where policy meets profit and zoning becomes opportunity. As founder of the Economic Infrastructure Group, CEO of Green Building Worldwide, and architect of the Oliver Bennett Agency, Charlie is turning deregulation into a strategy, summits into deal flow, and overlooked neighborhoods into investment.
​
With a sharp eye for transit-oriented development, a pulse on Opportunity Zone 2.0, and an unmatched ability to convene C-suite leaders, policymakers, and developers, Charlie is reshaping how we talk about affordability, infrastructure, and the business of zoning. Whether it's faceless videos, summits, or CEO-to-CEO engagement, everything points to one thing: a vision too big for the old rules.
​
The Zoning Strategist, TOD Evangelist, and Dealmaker-in-Chief​
Chair Oliver is a recurring speaker before the World Economic Forum, the Global Power and Energy BlockChain Conference, and the Equity Forum.

Charlie holds advanced certifications in Real Estate Finance & Investment, Development & Land Use, Property Valuation, and Negotiations from New Your University's Schack Institute, Executive Education Division.
