Head of Greensboro Economic Development Partnership Resigns

Andy Burke is leaving the GEDP on Friday to start up a new regional economic development organization out of state.
Burke said he was never disenchanted or unhappy with his job or the state of economic development in Greensboro. But he was excited for the "challenge of building the organization from the ground up."
Dan Lynch, the senior vice president of the group, will take over for him in the interim.
The Greensboro Partnership, the umbrella organization for the GEDP, the Chamber of Commerce and Action Greensboro, may not hire a replacement for Burke.
That decision will be left up to a TBD CEO, said Dennis Barry, the chairman of the organization.
