(NTS) will invest $1.5 million to expand its headquarters operation in Chesterfield County. The project will create 140 new jobs over the next three years. Speaking about today\u2019s announcement, Governor McDonnell said, \u201cWhat began as a two-person IT company in Chesterfield County in 1997 has grown to a national business that serves 15 states. I am thrilled that NTS has maintained its Virginia roots, and with this project will expand its headquarters operations still located in Chesterfield. The addition of 140 new jobs will bring the company\u2019s employee total to nearly 300 people. I look forward to NTS\u2019 continued growth and success.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo grow from two employees to a successful company of 280 speaks volumes about NTS\u2019 capability,\u201d said Jim Cheng, Virginia Secretary of Commerce and Trade. \u201cThe company has built a solid customer base serving the IT needs of health centers in the mid-Atlantic, and with this expansion will increase client capacity.\u201d NTS is a full service systems integrator providing customers with a single source for a broad range of high-technology products and services. The company has a national service delivery capability and is currently servicing 22 major metropolitan locations in 15 states and the District of Columbia. \u201cFamily and quality of life are of utmost importance to our NTS employees\u201d, states Bernard Robinson, President and CEO of NTS. \u201cAdd to that an extensive labor pool of skilled technology individuals and an excellent economic climate, the logical choice for our headquarters and expansion is Chesterfield County, Virginia.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Virginia Economic Development Partnership worked with Chesterfield County to secure the project for Virginia. Through its Virginia Jobs Investment Program, the Virginia Department of Business Assistance will provide funding and services to support the company\u2019s recruitment, training and retraining activities. The company also qualifies for a Major Business Facility Job Tax Credit. \u201cThe growth of our existing business is the heartbeat of economic development. We are so pleased to see Networking Technologies + Support expand in Chesterfield County and create 140 new jobs,\u201d said Dan Gecker, Board of Supervisors, Midlothian District.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Networking Technologies + Support Inc. to expand headquarters operation RICHMOND \u2013 Governor Bob McDonnell today announced that Networking Technologies + Support Inc.
