certification are invited to attend this no cost informational meeting.
Leesburg, VA (April 23, 2019) – The Mason Enterprise Center in
Leesburg will hold the next Quarterly HUBZone “Contractor Chat”
on Monday, April 29, 2019, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., at their
location in downtown Leesburg (202 Church Street SE). The
meeting is at no cost and open to all small businesses interested
in federal contracting. Lunch will be provided, sponsored by
Corporate Results, Inc.
This quarter’s guest speaker is Devin Henderson, President &
CEO of DH Technologies, a Leesburg HUBZone company and
graduate of the Mason Enterprise Center-Leesburg.
Founding DH Technologies in 2011, Henderson has lead the company from $1.2 million in the
first year to just under $90 million in 2018. The company has won a number of awards
including Tech Elite 250, #1 on Fast Growth 250, INC 5000 Top Small Business, and Virginia
Vanguard #1 Growth Tech Company.
Henderson has over 10 years as a solutions architect for DoD & Civilian Projects, notably
designing and implementing the first US Army Area Processing Centers and architecting
“Austere’s Challenge,” which is still in use today. Serving on VMware’s Technical Partner
Advisory Board allows DH Technologies to stay aligned with and ahead of emerging
technologies. Come hear success strategies from Henderson and ways they have taken
advantage of the HUBZone program.
A program of the U.S. Small Business Administration, the HUBZone program helps small
businesses gain preferential access to federal procurement opportunities while increasing
employment opportunities in economically distressed areas. In an effort to assist local
businesses with navigating the HUBZone certification process, the Mason Enterprise Center and
Leesburg Economic Development Office have partnered with technical experts and local business
owners who have completed the process successfully to present quarterly information sharing
meetings. Please visit https://www.meetup.com/Federal-Contractors-
