CV Products —  August 12, 2013 | Category: Advanced Motorsports Coating, Xceldyne Technologies | Comment

If we were to guess, the last thing you’d expect us to share here on the CV Products Blog is that we’ll be exhibiting at this week’s North Carolina Aerospace Supplier Conference, scheduled for Thursday at the Benton Convention Center in Winston-Salem, N.C. — just a half-hour’s drive northwest of CV headquarters in Thomasville.

In addition, the conference is intended to offer a platform for participants to share “best practices” in order to provide job growth, financial stability, and a stronger aerospace industry in the state.

And make no mistake about it. Aerospace is a big deal in our home state. In fact, North Carolina got in on the ground floor, so to speak, with the first powered flight by Orville and Wilbur Wright at Kitty Hawk back in 1903. And here are some other interesting facts that tie the Tar Heel State to the aerospace industry:

  • More than 180 aerospace companies are engaged in manufacturing in North Carolina, employing more than 9,500 people.
  • The economic impact of the military presence in North Carolina in 2013 is projected to be nearly Continue reading…

Xceldyne was named the top business for the fourth quarter by DavidsonWorks, a partnership of private and public resources delivering workforce development solutions and improvements for individuals and businesses within the county. The organization’s goal is to stimulate economic growth by providing a skilled workforce that exceeds business needs for the foreseeable future.

Criteria for the award were developed by the JobLink Business Solutions Team, which is made up of DavidsonWorks, Davidson County Community College, the NC Division of Employment Security and the NC Division of Vocational Rehabilitation.

Xceldyne was recognized as a business that acts as an ambassador for other businesses in our area, promoting our experience and success in providing a better outlook for local manufacturers.

In recent months, we’ve also served as a work experience site for a community college student studying administration, and we participated in a customized training program offered through Davidson County Community College.
