Charlotte Hearts Gigabit was just invited to a Google reception in Charlotte on Wednesday, January 28. The invitation read:

Save the date Google cordially invites you to save the date for an evening reception.

When: Next Wednesday, January 28th, 4:30 PM to 7:00 PM ET

Where: Charlotte, NC, More details to come

Please RSVP

There was no agenda or topic listed, and the location details were "to follow". The RSVP form was basic contact information, although there was a box to check if you are a city official.



We found out that the CMO of Queens University was also invited, and that people in Raleigh - Durham (another of the 9 areas on Google Fiber's evaluation list) received a similar invitation from Google for an event on the same evening in Raleigh, and on the 29th in Durham. The Triangle Business Journal reported it yesterday.



We are hopeful that this reception will include the announcement that Charlotte has been selected as a Google Fiber city!
