In February, the Raleigh campus co-organised a presentation on the topic: 'North Carolina Economic Forecast for 2023'.
Three prominent local speakers were invited to speak:
- Machelle Baker Sanders, North Carolina Secretary of Commerce,
- Christopher Chung, CEO of the Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina (EDPNC),
- Ryan Combs, executive director of the Research Triangle Regional Partnership (RTRP).
They spoke about economic development challenges and opportunities in North Carolina, including what the state of North Carolina is doing to build a strong ecosystem, address the current economic situation and attract talent from around the world. Cedric Decarpentrie, executive director of the French American Chamber of Commerce of the Carolinas, discussed the increasingly positive impact of the economic exchanges between France and North Carolina.
Amongst the attendees were SKEMA students, faculty, and staff, as well as local professionals and community leaders.
“With a world-class workforce, improved infrastructure, and equitable and inclusive practices, we can provide more access and opportunity for economic growth for generations to come in every corner of the state.” Machelle Baker Sanders, NC secretary of commerce
