We are thrilled to have our co-founder, Toby Kraus, featured on Kiln’s Member Stories. Kiln has been part of Lightship’s foundation since the early days, as it was the home of our first Colorado office, where we grew from 2 to 25+ Colorado-based employees. Kiln Boulder provided us with a flexible space that fit the needs of our ever-changing team. We’ve now outgrown that space with a Colorado team over 40 strong and moved into our Broomfield, CO manufacturing facility and office, where we are hard at work building our pilot line of Lightship L1s which will be coming to your driveways soon. A big thank you to Nina K., Morgan Luce, Gretchen Searle, and the rest of the Kiln team for all of their hard work in creating such a welcoming space.
