Asheville’s reputation as a startup hub continues to grow. Wakefield, which uncovers the national tech scene, hones in on several of our unique assets including The Collider, an innovation center where business meets science to create climate solutions, Blue Ridge Food Ventures, an incubator for natural foods companies, and Venture Asheville’s Elevate program supporting entrepreneurs through mentorship and peer-to-peer advising. The writer spotlights several tech innovators, both established and emerging, such as RISC Networks, BrewStreamPlumPrint, and Appalatch.

Plus, Outside magazine calls out two more assets luring talent to our mountain town on its new list of World’s Best Trips (see #11, hint: it’s not okay to drink and drive, but it is fully awesome to drink and canoe).
