Regions have become the most important geographies in the global economy, where size and scale matter tremendously. No longer are cities and counties competing with one another for economic advantage.

As a top 40 metro region in the United States, the Piedmont Triad has the collective size and aggregate assets to compete successfully in the global economy. With a regional population exceeding 1.5 million, the Piedmont Triad closely resembles Nashville, Austin, Salt Lake City, New Orleans and the Research Triangle metro areas. 

Regional collaboration has long been a priority in the Piedmont Triad, and we are a recognized leader. Piedmont Triad Horizons was birthed in 1989 by Piedmont Triad leaders who understood the value of regional collaboration. The Piedmont Triad Partnership was created in 1991 to promote the collective resources of the Region to recruit new jobs and investment to the Piedmont Triad. Today, the Piedmont Triad Partnership is a national model for comprehensive regional economic development service delivery, and the PTP has been recognized as one of the leading economic development organizations in North America.
 
The Piedmont Triad Partnership is leading economic transformation and revitalization in the Piedmont Triad region. In addition to marketing and recruitment, the PTP facilitates interaction among individuals and institutions across the 12-county region to create new initiatives and innovations, and to build the capacity to sustain long-term regional growth and prosperity.
