Day 2: Live from Charlotte
Today has been packed with big ideas! We started the morning at Central Piedmont Community College, learning how they’re building a workforce for a growing region and touring their simulation labs at the Leon Levine Health Sciences Center.
Building on that conversation about talent, we headed to The Pearl Innovation District to see where that talent goes next. Advocate Health showed us how education, industry, and innovation come together in one place.
Thank you to AT&T, Atlanta Gas Light, Kaiser Permanente, ATL Airport Community Improvement Districts, and CERM for fueling the day. More to come!
