About us
Bold. Future-thinking. Innovative. We've been named the Best City to Live in America, one of the Best Places for Young Professionals, and the #1 City where Women are Most Successful. More importantly, Arlington is an urban community that's home to world-class companies and a top-notch workforce, a multitude of transportation and housing options, and a prime location that gives your company access to the nation's decision-makers. Smart, Creative Workforce Arlington’s workforce is one of the most educated in the country. Almost ¾ of our workers have at least a bachelor’s degree, and about 40% have advanced degrees – that’s three times the national average. They’re tech savvy, innovative and talented. A Capital Location Arlington is a prime location for companies that want connections that matter and access to the nation’s policymakers – without compromising the opportunity to live in a great neighborhood. We’re just across the river from Washington, D.C., putting your company just steps from the prestige of the nation’s capital without the cost and congestion of living in the city. Hub of Innovation Arlington’s home to the Pentagon, DARPA, and top research agencies. Additionally, seven of the top 10 global aerospace and defense companies have offices in Arlington. And top research universities like Virginia Tech, George Mason, and UMD are all building new tech and innovation campuses here. Nationally-Ranked Schools The Washington, D.C. region is known for having some of the best K-12 schools and universities in the nation. With this outstanding educational infrastructure, it's no wonder that the area has one of the most highly-educated workforces in the country. Unstoppable Transportation Arlington has an extensive interconnected network of mass transit, including 11 Metro stations, regional rail, bus, Capital Bikeshare, rideshare, scooters, highway access and direct connections to nearly 100 cities from Arlington’s Reagan National Airport.

Yesterday was a great day at DC Startup & Tech Week (Formerly DC Startup Week), and we want to hear from you! Share with us how AED can support your growth and make real progress towards a more innovative region! We're always looking for new ideas. #DCSTW #DCStartUpandTechWeek #DMVEntrepreneurs #StartupDMV #DoItAtDCSTW #ArlingtonVA
Today, I had the privilege of welcoming DC Startup & Tech Week (Formerly DC Startup Week) to #ArlingtonVA. Thank you to Rachel Koretsky and Seema Alexander for bringing this impactful event to Arlington for a day! At Arlington Economic Development, we believe in breaking down silos to build an ecosystem where innovation can thrive across the entire region. Together with partners, we’re working to create an environment where startups have the resources and support to grow. I challenged participants to think about how we can build on this momentum. How can we better connect our ideas and resources? How can we support each other’s growth, and how can we leave here having made real progress toward a stronger, more innovative region? Would love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
