Anubis Labs has made Charleston its headquarters. 🛰

The company uses physics-based satellite analysis to understand what lies beneath the earth's surface. Groundwater systems. Resource exploration. Energy infrastructure. Federal programs.

With offices in Colorado, Texas, and Malta, they chose Charleston for a reason. Proximity to the Navy's PEO Digital program at NIWC-Atlantic, access to talent, and a tech community that keeps growing.

In the words of Founder and CEO Brett Egloff: "Charleston has quietly built one of the most interesting technology communities on the East Coast."
Anubis Labs is a Charleston Digital member company, now working out of the @charleston_techcenter . We're glad they're here.

If you're thinking about AI's role in mission-driven work, the evolution of nonprofit technology, or Charleston as a rising hub for innovation - don't miss this.

CDC member just swept the Seed The South Capital Summit in Charlotte - taking home BOTH the founders panel and investors panel awards at the $100,000 pitch competition at Bank of America Stadium.
Two panels. Two checks. One incredible team.
Horse Spot is building the platform horse shows, rodeos, and fairs actually want to use - and they're doing it the right way: customer-obsessed, founder-led, and listening closely to the community they serve.
Huge congrats to Chris, Lindsay, Michael, and the entire Horse Spot crew. Charleston is cheering you on.

Tech, talent, and tradition - where is Charleston headed next?
Our Founder, Ernest Andrade, sat down yesterday at SEGRA Club at Riley Park to talk through exactly that. From the growth of the Charleston Digital Corridor and Charleston Tech Center, to the real ways AI is reshaping how we work, Ernest shared a candid look at the road ahead.
One takeaway stuck with the room: in a world moving this fast, the strongest professionals aren't the ones with the biggest networks - they're the ones who refuse to work in silos.
Thank you, CREW Charleston, for the warm welcome and great conversation!
