“This event is a great opportunity to meet enthusiastic, motivated, and hard -working young
adults entering the job market. As a very small Leesburg company just starting out, I hired my
very first Leesburg HUBZone employee via this venue in 2013. Since then, Kalani Consulting, Inc.
has hired 10 HUBZone employees in 6 states – and it all began here in Leesburg at this event. If
you don’t attend this event, either as a company looking to hire or a young adult looking for
employment, then you are missing out on a fantastic opportunity.” - Duane MK Nathaniel,
Kalani Consulting, Inc.
For more information about the expo, please contact Kindra Harvey, Business Development
Manager, at kharvey@leesburgva.gov or 703-771-6530.
