How it all started
NCS entered the public sphere as NoDa Nites - a simple Wordpress site with a photo gallery. The idea was that Jared could post event photos taken around NoDa to the gallery, and good laughs could be had by everyone involved. Over time, NoDa residents and business owners kept suggesting features he could add to the website. Using his IT background and technical expertise, Jared began implementing far-reaching changes that expanded on the original concept, and NCS quickly evolved into a fully-fledged media company that partnered with local residents and business owners to drive traffic and put NoDa on the map. After a year of solid growth, NoDa Nites launched partner site Plaza Midwood Nites to serve the Plaza Midwood neighborhood.
We officially launched NoDa Nites on September 22nd, 2010. By mid-2013, Jared wanted to expand the company's scope and tap into demand for additional services including branding, talent management, and music & film production. Nites Studios was born, and with NoDa Nites and Plaza Midwood Nites became Nites Corporate Services. The original NCS neighborhood websites are out of production today (retained at the links on this page for historical purposes) but the communities we built still remain strong on social media today!
Since inception, Nites Corporate Services has expanded operations. In 2013 Nites Studios was formed, and NCS eventually transformmed into Ascendion IT Solutions. Today, Ascendion IT Solutions is continually striving for excellence in all the fields it operates in.
