Our
featured
North
Carolinian
trailblazer
this
month
is
Janet
C.
Wylie,
one
of
the
many
people
involved
at
the
forefront
for
growth
and
development
of
our
state's
growing
technology-defense
sector.
In
the
aftermath
of
September
11,
2001,
many
companies
have
sprung
up
all
across
the
U.S.
with
products
and
services
specifically
designed
and
targeted
for
the
security
and
defense
infrastructure
for
our
country.
With
Wylie's
involvement
and
the
hard
work
of
so
many
other
members
from
North
Carolina
Technology
Association,
North
Carolina
will
be
certain
to
capture
our
fair
share
of
the
growing
security
and
defense
business
out
there.
Let's
work
to
make
our
state
a
greater
driving
force
for
others
to
envy.
Until
next
time,
make
it
a
great
month!
