PIEDMONT TRIAD - Representatives from the Piedmont Triad will travel to Greenville and Spartanburg, SC, and Charlotte this week to meet with site selection consultants, commercial developers and real estate brokers. In addition to three scheduled meetings, the Piedmont Triad Partnership (PTP) will host a luncheon and a regional briefing for real estate brokers and consultants from the Charlotte area.
Kelly Stuart, Vice President, Client Development, will represent the PTP on the trip. Participating local economic developers are Todd Tucker, President, Surry County Economic Development Partnership; Robert Leak, President, Winston-Salem Business Inc; Wade Taylor, Vice President, Rockingham County Partnership for Economic Development.
“Greenville/Spartanburg and Charlotte are important markets for us,” says Don Kirkman, President and CEO of the PTP. “The Greenville/Spartanburg region is home to some of the industry’s top site selection consulting firms, while a number of national industrial and commercial brokerage firms have regional offices in Charlotte. Maintaining active relationships with these groups and keeping them apprised of current activity and opportunities in the Piedmont Triad is a key element of our marketing program,” adds Kirkman..
The Piedmont Triad Partnership (PTP), one of seven regional economic development partnerships in North Carolina, is the economic development organization representing the 12-county Piedmont Triad region. The PTP is the lead organization for the U.S. Department of Labor-funded Workforce Innovation in Regional Economic Development (WIRED) initiative, which supports the development of an integrated regional economic development and workforce development strategy for the Piedmont Triad. The Piedmont Triad, the nation's 37th-largest metro region with more than 1.5 million residents, includes the counties of Alamance, Caswell, Davidson, Davie, Forsyth, Guilford, Montgomery, Randolph, Rockingham, Stokes, Surry, and Yadkin.
