nCino is headquartered in my hometown, Wilmington, North Carolina. Even here, they keep a very low profile.

Within the local entrepreneurship community, they're recognized as being very successful, but most people who live here don't even know who they are.

They've done a nice job, and they deserve this. Congrats team!

As a former resident of Wilmington, this is incredibly pleasing to hear. The community has been striving hard for the past decades to move away from the concept of "just another beach town". I used to use the phrase "You get to live at the beach, now earn it" to motivate my students.

While not as prominent, Wilmington, NC is also home to Castle Branch [1], which initially started as small background checking company; GigSalad [2], which allows you to book various performers; and Lapetus Solutions [3], which uses facial recognition for health insurance purposes.

Also, hi Sam, don't internet stalk me.

It cheers my heart to hear stories of tech thriving outside of SV.

Also former resident of Wilmington, no comment other than that.
