Brickyard: Another Addition to Loudoun’s Entrepreneurial Foundation
Loudoun County, Virginia’s startup ecosystem has grown even bigger with the grand opening of Brickyard, an innovative place where entrepreneurs can network and collaborate in a shared office space. Loudoun Economic Development worked with developer Clarke-Hook and serial entrepreneur Paul Singh to get Brickyard launched in its new digs near George Washington University in Ashburn.
“Small businesses drive the U.S. economy, and we’re seeing that in a powerful way in Loudoun County,” says Loudoun Economic Development Executive Director Buddy Rizer. “A place like Brickyard can have a multiplying effect on startups, helping founders grow faster by inspiring and collaborating with each other as they build their businesses.”
Loudoun’s Small Business and Entrepreneurship Manager Vanessa Wagner is working to make sure Loudoun startups have everything they need to be successful.
“We have an incubator with the Mason Enterprise Center in Leesburg. We also have Makerspaces in Leesburg and Purcellville, where startups can make working models and prototypes. We have a website, LoudounSmallBiz.org, where startups can find details about these and 60 other resources, plus events, that make it easier for businesses to start, grow and thrive in Loudoun. We’re building an entrepreneurial infrastructure, and Brickyard will be part of that strong foundation.”
