Stafford Tech Hub a Done Deal

STAFFORD, Va. – It’s official: Stafford County will have a new technology research park outside the bustling Quantico Marine Corps Base.

The new tech hub, Stafford Research Park at Quantico Corporate Center, will initially occupy 1,400 square feet on the third floor at 800 Corporate Center Drive in North Stafford. Within five years, a new 30 to 40,000 square foot building will be constructed at Quantico Corporate Center for a standalone building, as agreed upon in the details of this public-private partnership with Fredericksburg developer Silver Companies, Stafford County, University of Mary Washington, George Mason University, ManTech International, and Germanna Community College.

“It really shows everyone coming together with a shared vision, which is the most exciting thing about this…this is really starting to happen and I hope the Board agrees this is a big step to make and will support us…” said Stafford Aquia District Supervisor Paul Milde.

According to plans outlined in county documents Silver Companies, which owns the developing corporate center near just outside Quantico Marine Corps Base, will contribute $315,000 toward the initial lease of 1,400 square feet of academic and/or business incubator space on the third floor at 800 Corporate Center Drive. Stafford County has contributed $600,000 for transportation improvements to the area, to allow for better traffic flow from U.S. 1 and nearby Telegraph Road, and will be faced with the task of staffing the center.

Officials said educational classes are already underway at the corporate center and will come with the addition of this new center.
