Tomorrow. This is it.

If you haven’t checked the agenda yet — now’s the time.

Shaping New England brings together the leaders driving real regional change.

Here’s some of what we’ll tackle:
How technology, infrastructure, and storytelling are reshaping how people experience destinations. Which turns visits into lifelong memories.

We’ll also explore:
How local communities become destinations people love, major attractions lift entire regions, and cross-sector collaboration creates momentum no single organization can build alone.

And don’t miss the closing synthesis panel, which will inspire next steps.

Strong regions protect what makes them unique.

We’re proud to have 🐾 joining us this Friday at Shaping New England — because real tourism goes beyond attracting guests. It drives education, conservation, and community connection while anchoring local economies and strengthening the region.

When attractions collaborate, the whole region wins.

Bridgette Bjorlo & for helping amplify that message.

✨ New heights in Hartford dining.

Before The Foundry opened on the 20th floor of iconic One State Street, they asked Rebellion Group to help shape the voice and vision for the experience ahead.

Together, we developed the messaging and campaign that launched this now-celebrated destination: Experience elevated dining.

With sweeping city views, high-end seasonal cuisine, and a warm welcome at every table, The Foundry—led by Chef Jeff Lizotte—is already earning its place as a top-tier Connecticut restaurant.

AdCap Growth Partners: A Bold New Brand for a New Era of Impact

With a legacy of empowering underfunded entrepreneurs and minority-owned businesses, AdCap Growth Partners has always stood for more than just capital. Now, their brand reflects that purpose with renewed clarity, strength, and vision.

The recent brand evolution marks a significant milestone—reimagining AdCap’s identity to better align with who they are today and the communities they’ll serve tomorrow.

This transformation included:

♟ A strategically developed brand name that sharpens and amplifies their market presence
🎨 A modern visual identity system symbolizing partnership, upward momentum, and resilience
📖 A unified, authentic brand voice and tone
👩🏼💻 A refined digital experience, including a responsive website that is as functional as it is compelling
📊 Purpose-built investor materials that clearly convey AdCap’s values and vision

The result is a brand that doesn’t just look different—it feels different. It tells a story of trust, momentum, and unwavering commitment to driving growth where it matters most.

This evolution isn't just about design—it’s about alignment. Between purpose and perception. Between impact and identity. And between a proven past and a bold future.
