FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Richmond, VA (May 2, 2007) – The Virginia Chamber of Commerce last week named AdvanceTEC, LLC one of the Commonwealth’s top 50 fastest growing companies.
Since its founding in 2000, AdvanceTEC has designed and built over 1 million square feet of cleanroom and laboratory space. With notable partners like the US Navy and NASA, they’ve become well-known in the microelectronics, life science, and nanotechnology fields.
Nanotechnology is one of the fastest growing fields in science today, with applications in the industries of defense, communications, and medicine, among others.
Some of AdvanceTEC’s most recent projects include Air Liquide Vinci Project, the Brookhaven National Laboratories Center for Functional Nanomaterials, Norfolk State University’s Class 100 R&D Nanotech Facility at the Marie V. McDemmond Center for Applied Research, and Duke University’s Center for Integrated Engineering, Medicine and Applied Sciences in the Pratt Engineering Building.
AdvanceTEC has been honored both locally and nationally with several awards, including recently being named one of the Richmond Times-Dispatch 2006 Rising 25 as well as a Company to Watch for the 2006 Virginia Capital Day. The company also recently won Controlled Environments Magazine’s top prize, the Experts’ Choice Award for Best Facility for its work on the Naval Research Laboratory Institute for Nanoscience.
Virginia’s FANTASTIC 50 award program is a signature event of the Virginia Chamber of Commerce. The FANTASTIC 50 awards recognize leading businesses across the Commonwealth in all types of industries, and are the only statewide awards of this type in Virginia. Companies were judged on four-year sales revenue history.
A list of the 50 award winners with detailed company profiles is posted on the Virginia Chamber’s website, www.vachamber.com
