Stafford County wants to give entrepreneurs a place to work, and to hire a new director to oversee an new business incubator.
County officials want to invest $385,000 in a new coworking space at Quantico Corporate Center, dubbed "Tech Park," to house start-up businesses. It's part of an ongoing effort dating back to 2010 where George Mason and Mary Washington universities, and Germanna Community College signed an MOU to explore the possibilities of classes, services, research, and economic development to what is today known as the Stafford Technology and Research Park located in the corporate center.
Based on findings included in the Tech Park Strategic Plan, staff determined that the next logical step includes the creation of a coworking space to accommodate the space needs of new small business entrepreneurs, to hire a part-time executive director to advance the Tech Park’s initiatives, and to locate today’s Center with the coworking space under one roof.
