PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY — Medliminal, LLC, an innovative leader in medical cost containment and healthcare cost reduction, is moving its corporate headquarters to Innovation Park.
According to Elise Baker, Director of Marketing at Medliminal, the move is a positive one.
“The Medliminal team is very excited about our newest HQ location. The office has a lot of collaborative work spaces, which exemplifies our company culture…we are always bouncing ideas off of each other.”
Right now, employees reside in what Baker called “Phase 1 of the building, or the front of the 17,000 sq. ft. space.” She said Phase 2 will be a complete infrastructure redesign and will be finished in the fall.
Spearheading the build-out of Medliminal’s new corporate headquarters in Prince William County is Vice President of Operations, Jordan Hill, who said, “We have always enjoyed a long-standing relationship with Prince William County and are excited to be in Innovation Park and part of a growing community of business enterprises.”
Baker said Medliminal decided to move to Innovation Park “because of its promising growth and vision.
“Medliminal believes Innovation’s plan to bring in high-tech companies align perfectly with the company’s health care cost containment objectives. Prince William County is becoming a hub for enterprises to develop their thriving networks.”
The company intends to invest $2.4 million and will initially bring ten employees with plans to hire up to 70 more, as it grows.
“We are excited to bring our growing enterprise to Innovation Park,” said Jim Napoli, CEO of Medliminal.
“Moving to a premier location like Innovation Park in Prince William County provides the most advantageous setting for our corporate headquarters.”
The Prince William Board of County Supervisors approved an agreement between Medliminal and the Industrial Development Authority (IDA) of Prince William County and agreed to provide a $100,000 Economic Development Opportunity Fund (EDOF) grant, as an incentive for the project.
The company’s new address is 9385 Innovation Drive, Manassas, VA 20110
In February of this year, the United States Tennis Association Mid-Atlantic (USTA MAS) announced it will locate its new headquarters and state-of-the-art tennis facility in Innovation Park, in Prince William County. The Board of County Supervisors approved an agreement between USTA MAS and the Industrial Development Authority (IDA) of Prince William County and agreed to assign a $100,000 Economic Development Opportunity Fund (EDOF) grant as an incentive for the project, which is due to be completed by 2021.
The USTA Mid-Atlantic Section, one of 17 sections of the United States Tennis Association, is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization serving more than 33,000 members in the D.C. metro area. According to the USTA MAS, tennis players of all ages and skill levels are involved in leagues, tournaments and programs sanctioned by the section. Over 300,000 visitors are anticipated to visit the new USTA facility per year.
Will the new USTA MAS facility affect local centers?
A variety of sport centers stand to be impacted by the new facility, but according to two local center representatives, the move will be a benefit to tennis players.

In July, Ceres Nanosciences (Ceres) announced it received Breakthrough Device designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its new point-of-care Nanotrap Lyme Antigen Test System. This diagnostic test requires only a patient’s urine sample to deliver results to the physician and patient at the earliest stages of infection, when treatment is most successful.
Under the Breakthrough Device program, the FDA works with a test developer to reduce the time and cost from development to approval.
Ross Dunlap, Chief Executive Officer of Ceres Nanosciences said the designation is important for several reasons, first because it means the test can more quickly be moved out of the clinical lab at George Mason University and into the general market where it can be shared by practitioners, other labs and distributors.

The 610 Car Wash celebrates its 30 year anniversary this year and the Car Wash preaches customer service over everything else. Majority owner and founder Gary Tardiff believes that a happy customer is the key for a successful business. Tardiff is a big believer that if there are happy customers and happy employees then the profits will come.
“Big corporations are getting away from the ‘customer touch’,” Tardiff said. “We never think about making profit. We’re not out to save money, we’re out to do a good job.”
Tardiff got the idea of starting the Car Wash business when his brother called him on New Year’s Day and asked him “What do you know about car washes?” Tardiff then spent the next day on the phone from 8 a.m. to about 5 p.m. calling different car washes and asking about how they ran their business.
