Anchorage Economic Development Corp. (AEDC) is a private nonprofit organization founded in 1987 with the mission to foster a prosperous, sustainable, and diverse economy in Anchorage. AEDC also developed PASS, a multi-modal shipping solution leveraging Anchorage’s strategic location and cargo airport to improve freight transport between Alaska and the West Coast. AEDC highlights Anchorage’s logistical advantages, including the Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, port facilities, and railroad, alongside economic incentives like tax credits and exemptions to attract and retain businesses. The private company is based in Anchorage, AK. Supported by over 250 Alaskan businesses and funded through private contributions, municipal, and state grants, AEDC promotes economic growth, a favorable business climate, and improved quality of life for residents. The organization provides economic data, reports, and interactive tools covering employment, industry trends, cost of living, and workforce analysis to support businesses and inform public policy. AEDC hosts Anchorage’s largest sit-down business luncheon and offers sponsorship and investor programs, providing networking opportunities, early access to economic data, and business promotion. It assists companies in locating commercial properties, advocates for streamlined municipal processes, and connects businesses with local leaders. AEDC collaborates with partner organizations statewide and regionally to expand business relationships and promote economic development across Southcentral Alaska. Key initiatives include "Choose Anchorage: A Framework for Revitalization," addressing economic challenges by focusing on business vitality, talent development, quality of place, and infrastructure investment. Anchorage’s economy spans construction, education, financial services, government, oil and gas, healthcare, IT, tourism, manufacturing, transportation, and professional services. The company was founded by Scott Hawkins.
