Our 1st Annual Prosperity Summit was held Thursday, 10/15. The evening began with a screening of the video “Leaders Championing Prosperity...” followed by a live panel of experts moderated by Executive Director Rob Nanfelt.
The timing of this event was intentional. It aligns with our overall approach to advocacy, and collaboration, which are critical to keeping us on course. We quote James Scruggs from our Leadership video who said, “We are beginning to see what happens if we don’t work together.”
There is significant uncertainty about how growth and technological advancements are impacting our communities. But one thing is certain: If we do not work together, we are giving up the opportunity to shape an outcome that keeps prosperity at the forefront of our planning.
Packaged as part of the airport's new lease agreement, "CLT Beyond" details several projects that will help build out the next phase of development at CLT. And as Charlotte continues to grow, we will need this vital infrastructure ready to expand alongside us.
Early Voting begins Thursday, 10/15 & runs until 10/31. That's when you can shift outcomes, vote for leaders with vision, & start creating a tomorrow that welcomes prosperity.
