Feb 6, 2025 | News
[Greenville, SC – February 7, 2025] Ten at the Top is pleased to announce that Libby Imbody of AuthentiCiTY Brand Strategies will take over as facilitator of the Upstate Downtown Academy. This role was previously held by Upstate Entrepreneur Ecosystem facilitator Craig Scharton. 
Libby Imbody is an Upstate SC-based branding and marketing strategist with over 20 years of experience dedicated to empowering clients to discover and express their authentic narratives. As the Principal of AuthentiCiTY Brand Strategies, she blends her expertise in branding with a strong foundation in community development, inspiring communities and the organizations that serve them to enhance engagement and unlock economic potential. Driven by a passion for storytelling and a commitment to equity, collaboration, and trust, Libby believes in the transformative power of communities to thrive. A graduate of the Savannah College of Art and Design, she also served as a Main Street Executive Director in her adopted hometown of Walhalla SC, enriching her approach to drive downtown revitalization through strategic branding.
“It is often the small details that make a town unique and reveal its authentic story. This is what makes our diverse upstate communities truly special. I am thrilled to highlight the impactful work being done to preserve and revitalize our upstate downtowns. Partnering with Ten at the Top through the Upstate Downtown Academy, I look forward to building a vibrant network of individuals from various backgrounds, coming together over a downtown walk and a good meal to share ideas and inspire one another.”
Initially created as part of the now completed Upstate Entrepreneur Ecosystem initiative, the Upstate Downtown Academy takes participants to downtowns in each of the 10 counties of the Upstate, and explores various topics related to downtown revitalization efforts.
