Knoxville Area Chamber Partnership - Welcome
Description
Knoxville 's roots run deep and strong. The city has served as the hub of the region since its founding in 1791. The best of its Appalachian heritage remains today -- a strong work ethic, a family-centered community, and an intense respect for the natural beauty that envelopes the region.
As grounded as Knoxville is with its workforce and lifestyle, it is as strongly wired to the future and the technology-based world of business. Fiber-optic lines thread throughout the core of downtown Knoxville . One of the country's five national labs sits in Knoxville 's backyard in Oak Ridge . The main campus of the University of Tennessee in Knoxville is home to nationally acclaimed schools of engineering, business and law. Seventeen additional colleges and training programs in the region produce a ready supply of trained workers.
Just as advanced technology resources connect Knoxville to the future, its location, in the center of the south, connects it to the roadways of the nation. Three of the nation's major interstates -- I-40, I-75, I-81 -- intersect in Knoxville . The city is within one day's drive of half of the country's population.
