Twenty years ago, Winston-Salem and the Triad experienced a series of devastating job losses and the decline of its key industries. Seeing the need to shape a new path, the Chamber and the community began to develop a vision for our future. Through the Tech Council and its technology-based economic development efforts, this vision has become a reality and Winston-Salem is transforming into a hub of innovation and progress.
On September 23, we celebrated these accomplishments and thanked all those individuals whose leadership and foresight have guided us. However, we did this with the full awareness that much still needs to be done. The Chamber and the Tech Council continue working to ensure Winston-Salem will always be seeking new paths for growth and prosperity.
