Virginia Chamber supports Startup 2.0
Jul 31 2012
The Virginia Chamber of Commerce is supporting Senator Warner’s bipartisan Startup 2.0 legislation, which would help support and grow small businesses and innovative start-up companies.
“This legislation will encourage entrepreneurship, innovation and job creation by allowing businesses to recruit and retain global talent, providing greater support for high-skilled jobs in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), and encouraging investment in startup companies,” the Chamber wrote in a July 26th letter to Senator Warner. “During these challenging economic times, we must do everything we can to promote job growth and economic development, and Startup 2.0 is a step in the right direction.”
