Dear Nanotechnology and Biotechnology Company Representative

On July 14, 2004, Virginia Economic Bridge, Inc. and the Northern Virginia Technology Council are co-hosting the 2^nd Annual “Virginia’s Linked Workforce Showcase” breakfast meeting to connect companies in Northern Virginia with companies in Southwestern Virginia for the purpose of developing strategic alliances.  This is an important economic initiative for the Commonwealth and I hope you will be able to attend the breakfast where you will also have the opportunity to network with leaders from the Federal and State levels.  Virginia Economic Bridge, Inc. is a non-profit organization that promotes the economic development of the Commonwealth through business, economic, and workforce development. 

Developing strategic relationships with companies in Southwestern Virginia can be important for your company through the subcontracting of project work.  At the breakfast, you will hear from 10 companies and be given the chance to be matched with a Southwestern Virginia company in the same industry sector through roundtable discussions with top-level management from those companies. 

I encourage you to attend the July 14 breakfast event and to bring a colleague from your company.  Enclosed you will find the materials needed to register for this important event that can benefit your business and promote crucial economic development in Southwestern Virginia.

Sincerely,

Bobbie Kilberg President
