Board of Directors

As a private not-for-profit organization, NEPIRC relies upon the sound guidance and strong leadership of its voluntary Board of Directors for continued success. NEPIRC’s Board of Directors is comprised of individuals in top management positions within regional businesses, local higher education institution campuses and nearby economic development organizations. Many Board of Director members are former or current NEPIRC clients and therefore have first-hand knowledge of NEPIRC’s staff and service offerings.
