GOVERNMENT RELATIONS
NC TECH engages with elected and appointed leaders at various levels of government for the purposes of educating our members and those officials about issues affecting the tech sector. Our advocacy efforts are focused at the state level, and we offer a variety of avenues for dialog with policy makers.
NC TECH has for many years worked with the firm of Brooks Pierce to assist the Association in its on state legislative matters. Ed Turlington and Drew Moretz are registered to represent NC TECH and serve as a valuable resource to our members.
ASSOCIATION ISSUES
NC TECH offers a vehicle for the collective voice of its members on issues that have particular impact on the tech sector. We focus on tax, regulatory, and procurement matters as they arise, and on general policy matters that are of special interest to the innovation community (crowd funding, STEM education, workforce, and more).
