A question and a request, which VT may already be doing, but if not I hope this gets to them.

Is the VTCRC also meeting with the business developers from those corporations? I think it would be brilliant if the CRC planned to give those who would be a good fit in the complex a tour and work on-going to bring some of those businesses here to set up shop for research, back office operations and other business growth functions.

Perhaps it is a joint effort between the CRC, Blacksburg, Christiansburg and Montgomery Co Economic Development teams. It is a unique moment when you have critical mass in town to show what we’ve got to offer and the sites we have for development.

Just an idea.
