Abstract:

Major conventions and business meetings generate over $17 billion into the economies of cities and towns across the country. In North Carolina similar meetings pump over $100 million a year into the state's economy. This article provides brief profiles of eighteen towns that have resources to support conventions and meetings, including Asheboro, Chapel Hill, Charlotte, Hickory, and High Point.
