About Piedmont Triad

High Point hosts the High Point Market twice a year, the largest furniture trade show in the world -- the physical center of the American furniture industry, still, even after most actual manufacturing moved overseas. Winston-Salem built its economy on R.J. Reynolds Tobacco (now Reynolds American), and has spent two decades rebuilding around Wake Forest University and Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center's biotech and life-sciences research instead. Greensboro anchors the region's logistics and advanced manufacturing, including a growing aviation-parts and vehicle-assembly base. Ten counties make up the real combined statistical area -- Guilford, Forsyth, Randolph, Rockingham, Davidson, Davie, Stokes, Surry, Yadkin, and Alamance (Burlington) -- a real, connected regional economy that neither Charlotte nor the Research Triangle edition actually covers.
