The VTCRC's mission is to develop a growing, prestigious research park for high-technology companies. The VTCRC will, in collaboration with the university, advance the research, educational and technology transfer missions of Virginia Tech (VT). Nestled in the heart of Virginia’s Technology Corridor and adjacent to the Virginia Tech (VT) campus, the Virginia Tech Corporate Research Center (VTCRC) is home to over 180 research, technology and support companies. Our 230-acre park is located in a beautiful mountain setting, with easy access to the metropolitan areas of northern Virginia and the nation’s capital. An expansion on the northwest side of the park provides enough land to construct 16 buildings in addition to the 33 single- and multi-tenant buildings currently on site. The VTCRC employs over 3,000 employees.

Gather demographic information to better understand opportunities and limitations for gaining customers.
