Loudoun's business community, all 150,000 workers and more than 9,000 businesses, is so much more than you ever imagined. Of course we serve the local "rooftops," through thousands of entrepreneurial and start-up businesses. Although our largest businesses receive most of the headlines, it's these 6,000 homegrown, often smaller businesses that fulfill the greatest needs in sustaining our daily lives.
Our business base also serves regional needs for higher education facilities, quality hotels, and recreational destinations, including rural wineries, family-friendly farms, and premium dining and shopping establishments. These businesses help give Loudoun a distinct image and quality-of-life advantage in the region.
Lastly, we cannot forget our
successful industry clusters in aerospace and aviation, life sciences, federal government contracting, information communications technology, and international business. These key businesses, many of which are on
Loudoun’s Major Employer List, offer unique products and services which earn them regional, national, and international recognition.
