Recognition honors exceptional companies raising the bar in workplace culture and employee experience. Daphne, Alabama — Inc. magazine has named 68 Ventures to its 2025 Best Workplaces list, spotlighting companies across the nation that are redefining what it means to create a meaningful, thriving workplace. This recognition reflects the heart of 68 Ventures—where people come first, culture drives performance, and impact is the mission.

This year’s list, featured on Inc.com, was developed in partnership with Quantum Workplace and is based on thousands of employee surveys evaluating everything from leadership and benefits to purpose and engagement. Companies were also assessed on the depth and quality of their perks, programs, and workplace philosophy. Out of thousands of applicants, 68 Ventures is one of only 514 companies selected. “We don’t claim to have it all figured out—but we show up every day, demand the best from one another, and stay committed to trying to do the right things for the right reasons,” said Nathan Cox, Chairman of 68 Ventures. “This recognition is humbling because it’s providing feedback that the culture we strive for and talk about truly exists. It is amazing what people can accomplish when no one cares who gets the credit and folks we have here embrace that mentality. It is always fun to watch them get more excited about the accomplishments of their teammates than their own. It is a special group here and they are damn sure the ones that deserve all the credit. The amount of talent I’m surrounded by and the quality of the new people we continue to add is humbling and testament to both who they are as well as what 68 Ventures stands for.” Headquartered in Daphne, Alabama, 68 Ventures is a development and investment company on a mission to inspire others to bet on themselves.

68 Ventures Announces New Leadership and Operational Update

July 31, 2023 (Daphne, Ala.): With the company’s new vision for the future, 68 Ventures has announced new leadership in Drew Dolan as CEO and Adam Campbell as president. In addition, 68 Ventures has announced a change with one of its operating companies, TerraCore Development Services (TerraCore). TerraCore is the single-family lot development arm of 68 Ventures and has been responsible for the development of over 7,500 lots.

Drew Dolan, CEO

Dolan, previously president of Truland Homes, a leading Gulf Coast builder of more than 3,000 homes, moved into the CEO role to oversee 68 Venture’s real estate and development efforts. As president for Truland, Dolan was responsible for implementing the company’s vision, mission and overall strategic direction in addition to driving culture throughout the organization, a role he will continue as CEO of 68 Ventures. “Leading Truland Homes was the most rewarding experience of my professional career. I am grateful to each of our team members and trade partners that made it such a success,” said Dolan. “As we look forward, I am excited to return to 68 Ventures and lead the organization alongside Nathan and Adam. We have a top-notch team and are well positioned to focus our resources to significantly expand our development operation.” Previously, Dolan worked for 68 Ventures as Chief of Staff where he was focused on providing support to the CEO, project management and strategic planning, in addition to working with internal business units, banks and investors on deal structures and execution. Dolan’s real estate and development career began when he started working as an attorney in the commercial real estate group at Maynard, Cooper & Gale (now Maynard Nexsen) in Birmingham, Ala. Here, Dolan represented buyers, sellers, investors, developers, landlords and tenants in all types of real estate matters. A native of Fairhope, Ala., Dolan attended The University of Alabama where he earned a bachelor’s in finance, a master of business administration, and a law degree.

Adam Campbell, President

Campbell is president of 68 Ventures and leads operations including all companies within the 68 Ventures portfolio. “I am honored and humbled that Nathan has provided me the opportunity to be a part of leading 68 Ventures alongside Drew,” said Campbell. “We have an amazing team in place that is highly competitive. We see a bright future ahead in all of us concentrating our efforts on development, investment and construction.” Prior to joining 68 Ventures, Campbell spent his corporate career as an executive in both the public and private sectors focused on formulating long-term growth strategies. His experience includes managing national sales teams, directing and overseeing company marketing, developing and overseeing a national client retention strategy, managing public affairs and communication efforts, along with identifying and evaluating acquisition targets that would unlock strategic markets for the organization. Campbell graduated with a bachelor’s degree from Monmouth University and earned a master of business administration from Colorado State University. Upon graduation from Monmouth University, Campbell entered the Marine Corps Officer Candidate School earning a commission upon completion. He spent the next 11 years as a Harrier Pilot and ultimately left the Marine Corps in 2015 at the rank of Major.

““As 68 Ventures embarks on this thrilling new chapter, I couldn’t be more confident about our prospects having Drew and Adam leading the charge. Both have been two of my most trusted relationships, while demonstrating their business acumens and leadership abilities to be beyond deserving of the roles. We have more opportunities in front of us than ever before, which is a testament to everyone in our organization, and there are none better than these two to capitalize upon them. I look forward to supporting them and celebrating their success together for decades to come.” 

Nathan Cox, Chairman, 68 Ventures

Will Lowery, Managing Director – Single Family Residence

The decision has been made alongside Will Lowery to transition him and the entire TerraCore team back under the 68 Ventures brand. Once its own entity, the TerraCore brand will be dissolved, however Lowery will continue to lead as the Managing Director of SFR (Single-Family Residential) Development and his team will remain completely intact. “Will has done a tremendous job building out and leading our single-family lot development operation over the last decade to provide lots to D.R. Horton and Truland Homes,” says Nathan Cox, Chairman of 68 Ventures. “It is with great enthusiasm we welcome Will and his team at TerraCore’s return to 68 Ventures. There is no other component of our organization more vital to us achieving all the goals we have set forth than augmenting Will and his group as they expand geographically in route to developing 5,000 lots a year for D.R. Horton.”
