Kannapolis is a city that straddles the border between Cabarrus and Rowan Counties in North Carolina. The city has a population of around 36,000. The city was founded in 1906 by James Cannon (from whose name the name of the city is derived), and became the home of Cannon Mills, one of the largest textile manufacturing facilities in the world.

However, in 2003, the successor to Cannon Mills closed the door of the last textile factory in Kannapolis, marking the end of an era for the city. However, a few years later, in a joint venture between Dole Foods, Inc., Duke University, and several other North Carolina universities, the North Carolina Research Campus was opened in Kannapolis. This has made Kannapolis a regional leader in biotech research, and has been the lynchpin in North Carolina’s efforts to economically revitalize the area after the departure of the textile industry.

Because of its newfound status as a biotech hub, there are quite a few intellectual property attorneys in Kannapolis.
