Economist: Raleigh set to outpace U.S. economy

Creation of new business establishments rose 3 percent in the Raleigh metro area between 2008 and the end of 2011. That was almost double the national rate of 1.7 percent, says PNC Financial’s Mekael Teshome, who believes the entrepreneurship factor will help the area outpace the U.S. in the coming economic recovery. http://www.bizjournals.com/triangle/blog/2012/07/economist-raleigh-set-to-outpace-us.html
