North Carolina’s vibrant economy, world-class workforce, and Southern corporate hospitality have landed it as the best state in the country for businesses in 2025, according to CNBC rankings.
“North Carolina offers the ideal combination of talent, infrastructure, and forward-thinking leadership to support our mission to reshape aviation,” said Tom O’Leary, CEO and co-founder of JetZero, a manufacturer of fuel-efficient airplanes, which announced last month it will build its first factory, in Greensboro, to be supported by 14,500 jobs.
Also last month, Amazon committed $10 billion for data centers in North Carolina, on top of the $12 billion the online retail giant has already invested in North Carolina since 2010.
“The latest expansion is a testament to the state’s thriving business ecosystem and talented workforce,” Amazon said in a statement.
On Thursday, UNC Health and Duke Health announced they are jointly building North Carolina’s first standalone children’s hospital in Apex, outside Raleigh. It will bring an estimated 8,000 jobs to the Research Triangle region, which also includes Durham and Chapel Hill.
