SUMMARY:FITCI Cornerstone Dedication Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\nPlease join FITCI for a Masonic Cornerstone Laying Ceremony to honor the 130 craftspeople\, designers\, and construction professionals from the 27 companies who helped build Maryland’s EDGE at 321. \nConsecrated by Grand Master Fred Spicer\n \n \nThe Cornerstone of FITCI and the Edge Accelerator: \n“The symbolism of the Masonic Cornerstone Laying Ceremony extends beyond the physical foundations of buildings to encompass enduring principles that guide progress and growth. These principles align seamlessly with the mission of FITCI\, which serves as a foundational cornerstone for entrepreneurship in Frederick\, Maryland\, the surrounding DMV area\, and nationwide. \nJust as a cornerstone lays a solid foundation for buildings\, FITCI provides entrepreneurs with the tools to establish a strong business foundation\, reducing the risk of small business failures. Their commitment to cultivating innovation\, integrity\, and growth runs parallel to Freemasonry’s mission to improve society by ‘making good men better.’ \nThe symbolism of corn\, wine\, and oil resonates in the fabric of FITCI’s mission. Corn\, representing abundance and prosperity\, reflects FITCI’s dedication to empowering entrepreneurs with resources to achieve growth. Wine\, symbolic of joy and unity\, mirrors the collaborative spirit of Frederick’s business community that embraces partnership and mutual support. Oil\, denoting divine blessing and peace\, speaks to the shared belief in a better future driven by entrepreneurship and innovation. \nFITCI\, like the ancient cornerstone ceremonies\, lays the groundwork for success. Established in 2004 and rooted in twenty years of progress\, FITCI shares Masonry’s universal principles of community support and the importance of a strong foundation. By connecting businesses\, fostering partnerships\, and cultivating a collaborative spirit\, FITCI is shaping a promising future for entrepreneurs. \nThis innovative business incubator and its newly consecrated Edge Accelerator are the embodiment of ‘a solid foundation\,’ embarking on a promising future\, providing entrepreneurs with not just a place to start but a community that helps them thrive.” \n
