How Charlotte Suddenly Became Home to 2 Millennial-Targeted Digital Start-Ups

Charlotte’s reputation has long been as a banking and finance center, so it may seem an unlikely venue for not one, but two new sites launched in the last year aimed at millennials.   Charlotte Five and Charlotte Agenda, each with a news diet heavy on where to go and what to do, arrive in quick format screen and newsletter versions promptly at 7 a.m. every weekday. Each boasts of “handcrafted” curation, each has the same single sponsor — a large orthopedics practice. Both, it should go without saying, display well on a smart phone.
