The NEW
Wheaton Business Innovation Center
is now accepting applications! |
Spurred by the success of our original facility, the Maryland Technology Development Center (MTDC) located in the Shady Grove Life Sciences Center, and the year-old Silver Spring Innovation Center (SSIC), located in downtown Silver Spring-which together house 60 companies with over 250 employees-we’re gearing up to open our third incubator within Montgomery County.
The NEW Wheaton Business Innovation Center (WBIC), opening spring 2006 in the Wheaton South Building at Westfield Shoppingtown Wheaton, will provide office space, conference rooms and support services for approximately 25-30 local small businesses. Features include:
|
Ø 10,000 square-foot, custom-designed
business center in the heart of
Downtown Wheaton – which is in the
midst of a $400 million, multi-phase
commercial, residential and retail
revitalization
Ø State-of-the-art conference and meeting
space with full plug-and-play capability
Ø Office equipped with Internet access via
T1 lines and voice and data connections
Ø Shared work space with copier, fax,
printer and mail service
Ø Available storage space

Like tenants of MTDC & SSIC, WBIC tenants will have access to a host of business resources including training, development, and best practices seminars led by industry experts, free counseling and legal services through the Maryland Intellectual Property Legal Resource Center, networking conferences, business counseling and more.
Montgomery County small and home-based businesses in the professional services industry in need of office space to support business growth and job creation are encouraged to apply for acceptance to the Wheaton Business Innovation Center. Prospective tenants with a sound business plan, sufficient capital and experienced management will be better positioned for acceptance. Qualified prospective tenants must be approved by a Tenant Review Committee before placement in any of the County's incubators.
For more information, or to request an application, please contact Jerry Godwin, WBIC Business Development Specialist, at 240-777-2000 or jerry.godwin@montgomerycountymd.gov.
