Virginia is CNBC's Best State for Business and #1 State for Education. The Tech Talent Investment Program – the first of its kind in the U.S. – is one of the many reasons Virginia came out on top. The program seeks to double the number of STEM grads in Virginia each year, and tomorrow, a key piece of the $2B investment comes to fruition with the ribbon cutting for the Virginia Tech Innovation Campus.
