We Are Ascendant.
Ascendant Communities is a completely unique vision for community growth, revitalization, branding and marketing.Unlike other development firms, we don’t just facilitate the strategic plan for a community – we stay as part of your team to evolve and lead its direction. We turn recommendations into priorities and action plans, and then project manage them to turn exciting vision into reality.
We formed Ascendant after years of experience helping to build and grow successful enterprises as well as advising top business and political leadership to help create policy and prosperity.
Our focus and commitment are on reversing the trends affecting nearly every Vermont community by revitalizing the downtown areas, growing residency and attracting new business investment and tourism.
Perhaps most importantly, our experience with these issues at a state-wide, regional and community level
