NOTEWORTHY QUOTES:

"When you add good jobs, when you add a tax base, you allow people to stay where they want to be, you build community, and you actually build a real community around it." – Antonio Bestard 

 

“Planned Capacity, as a father of daughters, two daughters, Ellen and Lucy…listening to them talk about their community and them being able to walk to school and things of that nature really makes me want to work with other communities and give that same ability, that same safety net and the same local culture to every single community we go to.” – Antonio Bestard 

 

“NO was not an acceptable answer. And I think that's really part of that entrepreneurial journey. When you're so inspired with purpose and you have the passion to go along with it, there's no “NO” that will stand in your way. And I think for me, that's really what Antonio and his team have really put together. They had good they wanted to do in the world, and they weren't going to let a crypto winter or the worst VC capital raise market in the history of tracking it stand in their way” – Jack Smith
