The Diary of a CFO: Live in Atlanta Series
Atlanta operates at the scale of a major business hub, yet most of the business conversation is still centered on places like New York City and San Francisco.
An estimated 70% of all US credit card transactions and more than $2 trillion in payments flow through this city every year. It is one of the largest and most diverse business ecosystems in the country, but it is not covered like one.
