For 20 years, the population of Hickory NC didn't grow. But now, it's on the rise with a trendy vibe that you wouldn't expect.
So how did that happen?
Today we uncover Hickory's transformation from a manufacturing-dependent town to a burgeoning hub and a shared community vision. Its continual reinvention and adaptability have enabled Hickory to overcome challenges and diversify its economy, advocating for investment in workforce development, community colleges, and leadership buy-in to sustain long-term growth.
Let's find out more!
We're joined by:
- Warren Wood, Hickory City Manager
- Scott Millar, Catawba County Economic Development Director
Today’s episode is hosted by Casey Steinbacher, Founder and CEO of Finding Next, Ted Abernathy, Founder of Economic Leadership, and Willie Jones, Senior Program Officer at the Danville Regional Foundation.
Home of Future Thinking is produced by Earfluence.
