| “VA, NC, MD, and TN all have strong business climates and excellent educational systems. They promote business. They want to and do help ongoing and new business.”
“Many of the counties in the commonwealth are abolishing taxes and policies that block effective business growth. Virginia also has chambers [of commerce] and military affairs councils that diligently work to maintain base presence in our state, which helps our economy, supports business and provides [a] well qualified workforce.” “Virginia is carried by Northern VA, which offers a great quality of life via close proximity to DC and has a high caliber talent pool.” |
