This Incubator System would not be possible without the help of two very progressive, forward-thinking entities: the City of Hampton and James City County.
The City of Hampton
Hampton, a robust waterfront city in southeastern Virginia, has
caught the attention of top businesses and developers from around the
country. In fact, some of the most successful and innovative companies
in their industries are investing in Hampton right now. So, why has
this urban waterfront city become a hot spot on the east coast?
Hampton
has a unique mix of growing and established business clusters
strategically designed to succeed. Their prosperity is due, in part, to
local and regional assets, a highly educated workforce, competitive
incentives, and state-of-the-art business parks.

center of Hampton Roads is attracting some of the nation's most
successful housing, retail, and hotel developers. They see a city

housing and retail developments, and it's easy to see why so many
companies are investing in Hampton.
