TECH IN THE SOUTH

WILMINGTON – Craft breweries. Molson Coors Beverage Company is acquiring a minority stake in its latest craft brewery and this one is extraordinarily unique: it’s managed and staffed almost entirely by active gang members.

DURHAM – Food tech. Not all of the food waste happens at home. Grocery stores dispose of a lot of food, much of it destined for landfills. WISErg has developed technology that captures nutrients from food scraps and turns them into fertilizer. Now that technology belongs to Plant Response. Learn more.
