2009 Keynote Speakers

We are excited this year to have our keynote address delivered by Dale Carroll, the North Carolina Deputy Secretary of Commerce. He will be speaking on the continued importance of manufacturing in our economy. When Dale Carroll was appointed by Gov. Bev Perdue as the deputy secretary of the N.C.

Loch, of the United States Marine Corps, Fleet Readiness Center East represents the first military organization to be awarded a North Carolina Awards for Excellence Level 3 Advancement Award. Col.
