When Light becomes Life ~ Science Tastes Sweet!
Holo-U-Topia Adventure and
Smoking Science Cafe'
Our Vision
Holo-U-Topia is a first-of-its-kind STEM entertainment destination that will redefine immersive attractions in the United States. While Van Gogh exhibits and VR headset venues have proven successful, our platform goes exponentially further. Through an exclusive partnership with Axion Holographic, Inc., we will deliver life-sized, full-bodied holograms that leap off the walls and interact with guests in a real space spectacle unmatched anywhere in America.
At the heart of the project is the U-Topia Science Café, featuring our patent-pending “Smoking Ice Cream Cup” experience. Together, these dual attractions fuse a Universal Studios–style spectacle with holographic wildlife, ocean, our galaxy, and dinosaur adventures—anchored by an interactive, science-inspired culinary destination.

Located just 10 minutes from the NC Zoo (with over 1 million annual visitors), Holo-U-Topia sits in the fastest-growing tourism corridor in North Carolina.

We are raising $5M for Phase 1, structured as:
- Single Anchor Investor: $5M for 30% equity, or
- Syndicate: 5 × $1M investors with shared equity.
The project already enjoys strong support from Randolph County Planning & Development, Asheboro City officials, and regional tourism leaders. With the Toyota Mega site and other industries fueling explosive growth in Asheboro, NC, this location is positioned to become one of North Carolina’s
premier economic and tourism hotspots.

Timing is critical!
Our site plan is shovel-ready, with a planned launch in Spring 2026. Early investors will secure first-mover advantage and the most favorable equity terms—once the round closes,
These terms will not be available again.

Our first-year revenue projections are very conservative, using only a 15% capture rate of Zoo visitors. Our hologram and café can support over 400,000 annual attendees. With tourism surging post-pandemic, a built-in audience of over 1 million next door, and a STEM/education mission aligned with civic priorities, Holo-U-Topia is uniquely positioned to deliver extraordinary financial returns alongside lasting community impact.

Holo-U-Topia is not just an attraction—it’s a cultural movement. It blends world-class entertainment, STEM education, and community development into a single venture with the power to transform North Carolina’s tourism landscape and create generational ROI.
