Introducing EDGE 7
We are excited to announce the start of the next EDGE campaign to fund and implement the comprehensive economic development strategy of the Greater Raleigh Chamber of Commerce.
EDGE is how the Greater Raleigh Chamber of Commerce funds the work that the business community has come to rely on the Chamber for – economic development, government affairs, marketing, and regional leadership. The Greater Raleigh Chamber of Commerce has heard the calls of the business community to focus on infrastructure, development, and advocacy and have added these items as a priority in the new 5-year strategy.
It is imperative that we as the leaders of the business community of Raleigh, Wake County, and the Research Triangle Region advocate for this comprehensive economic development strategy and invest in EDGE.
What is EDGE?
Every five years, the Greater Raleigh Chamber of Commerce develops a comprehensive economic development strategy that is informed by past successes, current circumstances, and future opportunities. The strategy is focused on creating an ecosystem in which people, communities, and companies can thrive.
The Greater Raleigh Chamber’s strategy is implemented through several programs of the Chamber—Wake County Economic Development, Raleigh Economic Development, and the Chamber’s Government Affairs department.
