As we shift gears into the second half of 2024, I find myself reflecting on the wealth of knowledge and insights gained from engaging conversations with industry leaders in manufacturing, commercial construction, and technology over the past many months. These sectors are not just evolving - they are being revolutionized by the power of technology, the drive for sustainability, and the push for inclusivity. The fusion of these industries is reshaping our state’s landscape, marking a new era of growth and innovation. This transformation is beautifully illustrated in the rise of eco-friendly, mixed-use urban communities like RXR's Apex-based Veridea, the robust expansion of premier industrial parks such as Pender County Commerce Park, and the forward-thinking initiatives of the City of Albemarle with their new business center. It’s been an enriching experience to collaborate with our partners at Wilmington Business Development, Bobbitt, and Protocase, to attend events hosted by Cape Fear Manufacturing Partnership, SOUTHERN TEXTILE ASSOCIATION INC, North Carolina World Trade Association, Urban Land Institute, and North Carolina Economic Development Association, and to do so alongside the most incredible team at Michael Best & Friedrich LLP. Here’s to embracing these changes and propelling forward into a future that is technologically advanced, sustainable, and inclusive. 2H 2024, bring it! #Manufacturing #Technology #CommercialConstruction #CommercialDevelopment #CommercialRealEstate #NorthCarolina #AtOurMichaelBest #MichaelBest
