Celebrating East TN's Inc. 5000 Listed Companies

A spirted evening in November with KEC and our region's INC 5000 listed companies! It was a night of engaging roundtable conversations about entrepreneurship, growth, economy, and everything in-between.

We were honored to celebrate StoragePug , Avertium , Axle Logistics , Boldsquare , '58 Foundations & Waterproofing , Boston Government Services, LLC (BGS) , Avèro Advisors , and KaTom Restaurant Supply, Inc. during our second annual Growth & Grit.

Special thanks to Lighthouse Knoxville for the hospitality and Travis Tench (Oak Hill Audio) for music and sound! Also, thanks as always to Holly Rainey for the wonderful event photos.
