Easy, timely and affordable access to exceptional economic development talent via temporary in-organisation placements.

Filling the gap between economic and community development employees and consultants

  • Economic development professionals are often stretched too thin, with limited resources and time. They do not have the capacity to hire in-house staff, nor the time and resources to develop and manage effective consulting briefs - they need help.

  • edCopilot is a professional services bureau that supports your organisation across all phases of community and economic development. Our experienced professionals are available for fixed-term or project-based placements. We are here to help you achieve your goals!

  • edCopilot provides our partners with access to a vast array of knowledge, skills and experience at the right time to effectively support communities.

“My small team needs to be experts in everything from community engagement, to smart cities, to investment attraction and business cases. It just isn’t possible.”
