For hundreds of years, very few symbols evoked the kind of community-wide optimism than that of a local barn raising. Serving as a testament to the value and tradition of growth, a raising would rally together all local men and women to collectively erect the frames of a new barn, often over a communal celebration. Transitioning from the hammer and nail to the digital age of today, the evolution of community building is watching a new symbol of barn raising emerge; Investment Crowd Funding.

Following in that vision, Mountain BizWorks, in partnership with NCIDEA and HatchAVL Foundation, are hosting the inaugural Mountain Raise: Live Offering Event on November 20th at Highland Brewing Company. By showcasing the 2019 recent graduates of ScaleUp WNC, in conjunction with the Invested Equity Crowdfunding Course, Mountain Raise will present an innovative take on pitch events where everyone in the room can become an Investor.

Attendees must be 21 years old. Dinner and 2 complimentary drink tickets are included in ticket. Seating is extremely limited. Learn more at www.MountainRaise.org
