Our @SmartIncentives & @KauffmanFDN report shows similar changes to the #COVID19 relief programs. We focused state & local equitable distribution to small businesses owned by BIPOC, women, and those in under-resourced areas. bit.ly/3A7IYHm bloomberg.com/graphics/2022-…

Someone was asking me what is wrong with film incentives. I was reminded of this thread on Georgia's film incentive audit.

Georgia's audit of their film incentive program is scathing, even by film audit standards. A thread based on a quick read. There is so much here.



Agreed. As we found in our @SmartIncentives report greater outreach increases equity and increases economic well-being & growth.
