NC 100

10/13/2026

On September 30th, the great folks with North Carolina Department of Information Technology and Institute for Emerging Issues (BAND-NC) convened the 3rd Annual Statewide NC Digital Opportunity Gathering, themed “Collaborating for the Future,” in Durham, NC.

NC 100 CEO MB Holloway facilitated the opening session focused on rural NC resources, challenges, and promising initiatives alongside an outstanding group of leaders:

Dr. Leslie Cofie Assistant Professor, ECU
Maggie Woods, Director, NCDHHS Rural Health Transformation Program
Senitria Goodman, CEO of Trillium Health Resources
Teresa Rush-Edwards, founder of ESG Foundation NC

At NC 100, we see firsthand both the opportunities and the challenges facing rural communities statewide and here in RockCo.

We are encouraged by the people and partnerships committed to closing these gaps, but also mindful that the real measure of our progress will be what we can sustain, strengthen, and make accessible long after the gatherings end.
