Last week, we had the privilege of attending #ASSEMBLE100, hosted by Gary Community Ventures—an inspiring event that convened 100 innovative minds around a single issue: transforming the future of wealth and ownership. Being surrounded by brilliant investors, entrepreneurs, and thought-leaders reaffirmed our belief that the ownership economy is here. Shifting who owns assets is crucial to achieving true equity and advancing economic justice. Our CEO, Charlyn Moss, and Associate Consultant, Efrata Kirose, delivered powerful talks on the critical need for conviction and disruption in shaping an equitable future. Drawing from their personal experiences as homebuyers, they shed light on how homeownership extends beyond acquiring a property. Both Charlyn and Efrata emphasized the ripple effects homeownership has on community empowerment, generational wealth building, and creating stable environments that foster growth, security, and belonging. Their insights and leadership were truly inspiring, leaving an indelible impact on the conversations around wealth transformation. Thank you Aisha T. Weeks, MPA and Tiffany Roan, MPA for organizing an amazing panel discussion by Dearfield Fund For Black Wealth and thank you Cindy Willard for being a part of the funding mechanism that fuels this work! We’re grateful for this opportunity and excited to continue building a future where ownership is reimagined for all.

We had such an inspired experience attending the 2024 Denver ScaleUp Network Graduation and Fall Cohort Kick-Off by Denver Economic Development & Opportunity and Bridge Entrepreneurs Network Colorado!

Our CEO, Charlyn Moss will be part of the incoming Fall Cohort! 💜 A special thank you to all the DenSUN partners, alumni, and BEN Advisors who make this journey possible.
