Virginia Rural Center

Thanks to SOVA Innovation Hub and Mid-Atlantic Broadband for an incredible tour of their coworking and community space in South Boston!

Jeremy Satterfield of Microsoft TechSpark joined to discuss how Southside Virginia is cultivating homegrown talent — partnering with Southside Virginia Community College and the Southern Virginia Higher Education Center to grow IT and STEM opportunities from K-12 through higher education.

"Stay active. The key to longevity is it's hard to hit a moving target."

A warm welcome to South Boston along with some great advice this morning from Carlyle Wimbish, board member of the Council for Rural Virginia, as the cohort kicks off their third and final day in Southside!
