The North Carolina Ecosystem Technology (NC ECOTECH) in coastal North Carolina will serve as a test case, with Duke University conducting an economic impact analysis to identify the industries and geographies where targeted investment will have the greatest social and economic impact. This analysis will help steer NC ECOTECH's selection of industries and counties to support, establishing a model framework for other regional innovation initiatives. The project aims to address national challenges, enhance economic competitiveness, and support emerging technological domains across science, engineering, and innovation sectors.
