Our 2025 State of the Region Breakfast: Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is a dynamic conversation on how transportation is fueling growth across Johnston County.

From runways to rail lines to roadways- and even innovative micro transit solutions- transportation plays a powerful role in driving economic opportunity. Hear from leaders of the Johnston County Regional Airport, NC Railroad, the North Carolina Department of Transportation and QuickRides, each sharing how their work supports business development, workforce mobility and the region's long term success.

Whether you're in logistics, real estate, manufacturing or small business, you'll walk away with a clearer understanding of how infrastructure investments and transportation strategy are shaping Johnston County's business climate.

Our panelists include:

  • Kim Genardo, Public Relations Senior Manager, North Carolina Railroad Company
  • David Harris, Director Johnston Regional Airport
  • Joey Hopkins, Secretary of Transportation, North Carolina Department of Transportation
  • Josh Jenson, Director Community & Senior Services (Operator of QuickRides and JCATS)
  • Joe Milazzo, II, Executive Director of the Regional Transportation Alliance.
