Branding Raleigh to the World

From that poll I made a while ago, it seemed like our two top choices about how we see Raleigh is as:

  • a nature-filled, Southern-with-a-capital-S (but not that racist) city
  • friendly, smart, down-to-earth innovators (as per @Loup20 in this post)

I found a blog post from the Triangle’s transit equivalent of a chamber of commerce coming up with an interesting idea that seems like a compromise between these two views.

What do you think? Would you use “the R&D cities of North Carolina” in conversation or in a presentation?
