The NCGrowth Fall Showcase hosted in Maysville, NC brought together 40+ community partners, entrepreneurs, and local leaders to celebrate innovative projects advancing inclusive economic development across Southeastern North Carolina. We heard insightful presentations from NCGrowth clients which included: the Town of Maysville (Schumata Brown), the Enfield Alliance Coalition (Larry Perkins), Freedom Org (Kendrick Ransome and Aerhealle Chace), Queen of All Things (Lonyae McClune), and the Lumbee Tribe’s Ag NRD Foodways Initiative (Pat Dial). We were also joined by Thom Ruhe, CEO of NCIDEA, the primary event sponsor.
The purpose of our showcase events is to highlight recent NCGrowth projects and upcoming work with businesses, local and tribal governments, and anchor institutions across the Carolinas. Clients are invited to share their experiences and the impact our work has had on their community, business, or organization.
