This document outlines efforts to promote technology-based economic development in Virginia's Region 2000. It identified initial obstacles like lack of broadband access and real estate. Goals were set to study broadband expansion, create a technology park guide, and identify industry clusters. Accomplishments included expanding broadband access, creating technology incentive zones and a new technology park, and facilitating partnerships between businesses and universities. Next steps involve developing a regional entrepreneurship and small business strategy to build the pipeline of new businesses and connect them to resources.
