The HYP’s “How It’s Built in the ‘Burg” series is a new program held every other month. The series is based on the popular NPR Podcast “How I Built This” about innovators, entrepreneurs, and idealists, and the stories behind the companies they have built. With a host of our own, Larry Binda, editor of The BURG magazine, HYP will pull in local entrepreneurs and business founders from the Central PA Area to share their triumphs, failures, serendipity, and insight. Guests are invited to network with people prior to the event with a cash bar and appetizers. This will be a program that you do not want to miss!

For our first event, we featured Artie Tafoya, co-founder of Appalachian Brewing Company. This company is one of Harrisburg’s first microbreweries. Now, you can find their beer and soda in grocery stores across the US!

Special thanks to Clark Stefanic Video for the recording and editing of this podcast.
