HICKORY, N.C. (AP) - The manufacturing and furniture industries that built up the Hickory area have been hit hard in this recession, so the community is talking through what to do next.
Local experts gather Wednesday to discuss western North Carolina's economic challenges and opportunities during a town hall meeting in Hickory.
The discussion involving business and academic leaders is sponsored by statewide public television network UNC-TV, which broadcast the discussion live.
The television network said it's out to find out about the economic changes North Carolina residents are seeing wash across the state.
A fourth town hall televised by UNC-TV is in two weeks at East Carolina University. Two earlier events were at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke and Western Carolina University.
