Build / Transform / Sustain

Ravi Norman, CEO of THOR Construction, will be talking about the success of THOR Construction Companies and his thoughts on how we can build community, bring greater equity and success to everyone. Ravi will also talk about THOR's new headquarters and focus in North Minneapolis.

Ravi was named on the most admired CEOs in 2016 by The Minneapolis St. Paul Business Journal. From a Business Journal article, last fall:  As the largest black-owned business in Minnesota and one of the largest African-American-owned construction companies in the country, Norman sees Minneapolis-based Thor as uniquely positioned to support African-American communities in particular. 'We make it very clear that we are in place-based projects," Norman said. "Not only are we looking at the building, we’re looking at that broader vision of a regional, shared prosperity model."
