PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. — In an effort to get out of the shadow of larger area counties, Prince William County wants to add to the list of businesses it wants to lure to the region.
Economic development officials want to attract more companies that deal in materials and life sciences, such as engineering firms, and more logistical business, such as warehousing and short-hauling trucking companies, and defense-industry jobs like cyber security, are keys to growth in the county.
