Global Landing Pad has been launched by VT KnowledgeWorks in the Virginia Tech Corporate Research Center. The landing pad provides workspace for businesses who want to set up a home office in the U.S.

Here is the press release from VT KnowledgeWorks.

(Blacksburg, VA) – The Global Landing Pad provides a low-cost, high-quality workspace experience for businesses desiring to set up a home office in the USA.  Until now, having a presence to conduct business in the USA has required a commitment of money, time and effort that challenges most small- to medium-sized companies.  That has changed with the launch of the Global Landing Pad in the Virginia Tech Corporate Research Center, Blacksburg, Virginia, USA.

Some of the services included in the Global Landing Pad are an official USA mailing address, wi-fi, copy/printer/fax machine, preferred access to VTKW affiliates (legal, finance, tax, etc.), introduction to and inclusion in regional business networks and organizations, counseling on doing business in the USA, and housing and travel assistance.
