Start businesses. Grow companies. Create jobs. Build inter-generational financial security. Enhance the OPPORTUNTIES available in a community for all. That, in a nut shell, is what economic developers do. And that, in a nut shell, is what the incredible staff and volunteer leadership aims to accomplish through GO Virginia's Region 6, also known as the Mary Ball Washington Regional Council (serving the city of Fredericksburg; and the counties of Caroline, Essex, Gloucester, King and Queen, King George, King William, Lancaster, Mathews, Middlesex, Northumberland, Richmond, Spotsylvania, Stafford and Westmoreland). GO Virginia is an initiative by Virginia’s senior business leaders to foster private-sector growth and job creation through state incentives for regional collaboration by business, education and government. We're proud to have been part of the team to launch Region 6's new website...the mothership to spread the word about these great opportunities that exist for growth.
