As the leading economic development organization in our state, the Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina (EDPNC) supports and counsels businesses, large and small, to succeed. The organization works with the public and private sectors at state, regional and local levels to pursue sustainable job-creation and investments.
Core to its mission is to improve the economic well-being and quality of life for all North Carolinians. Living this mission takes shape both inside and outside the organization.
EDPNC’s workplace is family friendly, ensuring that its more than 70 employees across the state can meet their family and workplace responsibilities. Among its family friendly benefits, EDPNC offers paid parental leave, an Employee Assistance Program, a Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account and hybrid, remote work options.
The organization also recognizes the value of family friendly workplaces to our state’s reputation. Chris Chung, EDPNC’s CEO, believes that the wide adoption of family friendly benefits can create a more engaged and productive workforce, which in turn builds our state’s reputation as a great place to do business and where employees feel they have a better balance in their work and family life.
