The Triad Business Journal just released the 2017 Triad Power Players. These are the individuals in our region who, according to the Triad Business Journal, use their influence “to champion truly catalytic efforts, to put their reputations and dollars at risk and to execute plans that move game-changing projects—and our region—forward.
