Mayor, Duke CEO launch bid - Charlotte Business Journal

Mayor, Duke CEO launch bid - Charlotte Business Journal:
Erik Spanberg
"Mayor Anthony Foxx and Duke Energy Corp. CEO Jim Rogers, co-chairs for the local bid, billed the city’s role as a possible convention site as something that could transform the city. Rogers stressed the city’s — and North Carolina’s — knack for reinvention as the perfect backdrop for a region and nation recovering from a lengthy economic slump. From leaving behind a history of tobacco and textile to bidding to become an energy hub, North Carolina stands as an example of how tough times can be transformed into future success, Rogers said."
