How We Helped High Point Secure Funding for Truist Point
The City of High Point had ambitious plans for Truist Point, a transformative
downtown stadium project designed to revitalize the area and drive economic
development. However, securing the necessary state funding presented
significant challenges.
The King and Co Approach: Sebastian worked directly with High Point city leaders to develop a compelling case for state investment. By strategically positioning the project as an economic catalyst for the entire region, King and Co crafted messaging that resonated with key decision-makers. Sebastian leveraged his established relationships at the state level to arrange critical meetings, educate legislators about the project’s benefits, and advocate for funding inclusion in the state budget.
The Result: High Point received the highest budget appropriations in the city’s history, securing the necessary funding for Truist Point. The successful project has since become a cornerstone of High Point’s downtown revitalization, creating jobs, attracting visitors, and spurring additional private investment in the area.
In the client’s words: “Sebastian and his firm have the ability to provide access to state money other firms just do not have. High Point saw the highest budget appropriations in our city’s history.” – Rachel Moss, CEO/President, Business High Point Chamber of Commerce
