Secretary Coker Jr.'s visits recognized the businesses’ contributions to the state’s economy and provided an opportunity to learn more about their work and growth.

Montgomery County, Md., Nov. 14, 2025 – Maryland’s Secretary of Commerce Harry Coker Jr., alongside representatives from the Montgomery County Government, the Montgomery County Economic Development Corporation (MCEDC), BioHub, and Rockville Economic Development Inc., visited four Montgomery County businesses across the Technology, Life Sciences and Hospitality industries, which are key target industries for the State of Maryland. The visits recognized the businesses’ contributions to the state’s economy and provided an opportunity to learn more about their work and growth. The companies visited included Omega 3 Nutrition, X-energy, DEKA Biosciences, and Donohoe Hospitality Services.

“Montgomery County represents some of the very best in Maryland innovation. The businesses we visited reflect the strength, diversity, and collaboration that define our state’s business community,” said Maryland Commerce Secretary Harry Coker, Jr. “We could visit businesses in Montgomery County all day, every day for a month and still barely scratch the surface of what makes this county such a crucial economic engine for our state. I’m deeply grateful to our partners in Montgomery County for welcoming us and sharing their incredible work.”

“Montgomery County is home to remarkable companies that are shaping the future of science, technology, and hospitality,” said County Executive Marc Elrich. “I appreciate Secretary Coker spending time with us to see that work up close. We are building an economy rooted in innovation, talent, and shared prosperity. We will continue working with the Moore/Miller Administration to support companies that create good jobs, strengthen our communities, and keep Maryland at the forefront of discovery and economic growth.”

All four companies exemplify the forward-thinking businesses that thrive within Montgomery County’s dynamic business ecosystem. Maryland-founded and Rockville-based Omega 3 Nutrition, a nutrition brand dedicated to enhancing brain health through organic, brain-boosting ingredients, recently closed an oversubscribed seed round with investment from the Maryland Momentum Fund.

X-energy, a leading nuclear reactor and fuel design technology company focused on clean energy generation, recently announced plans to consolidate its two Rockville offices into a new 125,000-square-foot headquarters at Washingtonian Center in Gaithersburg, Maryland. The company plans to retain 260 full-time employees and create more than 525 new jobs over the next six years.

Germantown-based DEKA Biosciences is an early-stage biotechnology company pioneering next-generation targeted cytokine therapies to treat cancer and inflammatory diseases. Meanwhile, Donohoe Hospitality Services is one of the largest independent hotel management companies in the region, representing over $1 billion in hotel asset value.

“Thank you to Secretary Coker for recognizing the important work these companies are doing to advance Maryland’s leadership in innovation and economic growth,” said Elana Fine, MCEDC Board Chair. “These companies showcase why Montgomery County is a leading destination for talent and investment across all industries.

Mobilize Montgomery Federal Workforce Career Center Opens in Montgomery County, Maryland

The first of its kind center in the nation will provide personalized support and services to displaced federal workers.

Montgomery County, Md., Oct. 9, 2025 – The Mobilize Montgomery Federal Workforce Career Center (FWCC) held a ribbon cutting ceremony to mark its official opening. Funded by the Montgomery County Government, the FWCC is the first of its kind physical location in the United States dedicated to supporting displaced federal workers through personalized services and programs.

“The Mobilize Montgomery Federal Workforce Career Center is the first facility of its kind in the nation, and it was made possible because we had the foresight to include an additional $700,000 in the FY26 budget for WorkSource Montgomery to expand its operations and prepare for the job losses we feared were coming,” said Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich. “We are grateful for the partnership of Governor Wes Moore and the State of Maryland, and for the tireless efforts of our Congressional delegation to protect and preserve the critical work done by federal employees. While I’m pleased that Montgomery County can offer this center to help people transition into new opportunities, it is unfortunate that these workers have been forced into this position by the decisions of the Trump administration and Congressional Republicans. These are hardworking people who have dedicated their lives to public service, and they deserve better.”

Foresight was key in getting this center open now, just days into the federal shutdown.

“When we saw things starting to get uncertain in January, we listened to the federal workers and contractors. We knew Montgomery County needed to address this unique workforce crisis. The creation of Mobilize Montgomery, in partnership with WorkSource Montgomery, means we have created an actual place that those federal workers can come to for assistance,” said Kate Stewart, Montgomery County Council President. “Montgomery County supports neighbors in their time of need. It is who we are, and seeing this center open is a testament to how we look out for our residents.”

Located within the Wheaton American Job Center at 11510 Georgia Avenue in Wheaton, MD, this space will welcome displaced federal workers, contractors, and others navigating career transitions due to the ongoing federal workforce reductions. Montgomery County residents will be able to benefit from federal resume and job placement assistance, career and entrepreneurial coaching, and professional development programs. Additionally, jobseekers will be able to utilize the full scope of WorkSource Montgomery’s American Job Center’s services, including free virtual and in-person workshops, financial counseling services through the Financial Empowerment Center, and onsite access to Maryland Department of Labor staff who can assist with unemployment insurance (UI) questions. Services offered at the FWCC are for Montgomery County residents, however some events such as job fairs may be open to the broader public. For residents of other counties and states, the FWCC team will be ready to provide them with information for their local job centers in Prince George’s County, Northern Virginia, the District of Columbia, and other jurisdictions.

“The launch of the FWCC symbolizes Montgomery County’s ongoing commitment to supporting federal workers and contractors in our region through this difficult time,” said Michael Covin, Director of the FWCC. “We stand ready to help them through in-person and personalized services and ensure that they don’t need to navigate these challenging times alone.”

The FWCC will be open Monday – Thursday from 8:30 a.m. – 5 p.m. and Fridays from 8:30 p.m. – 3 p.m. Jobseekers interested in utilizing the FWCC’s services should follow the three-step process listed on the Mobilize Montgomery website at mobilize-montgomery.com/fwcc. While walk-ins are accepted, the FWCC recommends making an appointment. Jobseekers who need help or have questions, should email fwcc@worksourcemontgomery.com or call 240-283-1509.

“The opening of the Mobilize Montgomery Federal Workforce Career Center reflects Montgomery County’s forward-thinking approach to supporting both our workforce and our business community. Federal workers and contractors play a crucial role in our local economy, and by helping them transition, retrain, and reengage in new opportunities, we are strengthening the overall economic resilience of our region,” said Angela Franco, President and CEO, Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce. “MCCC and all the local chambers are proud to partner in this effort to ensure that Montgomery County remains a hub for talent, innovation, and inclusive growth.”

“Montgomery County businesses and federal contractors have felt the harsh effects of the federal budget cuts, and now the government shutdown, over the past few months,” said Elana Fine, Montgomery County Economic Development Corporation Board Chair. “The launch of the FWCC is a crucial step in ensuring that residents and businesses in Montgomery County know that the local government and key stakeholders are standing with them during this challenging time, and are working to make sure that our business ecosystem remains resilient.”

Morguard’s Magnificent Murals: The Role of Public Art in Economic Development

Murals are a prime example of placemaking, the process of transforming public spaces to strengthen the connection between people and the places they share.

With bold colors and bright, white backdrops, new murals throughout Rockville Town are drawing attention – and visitors. Featuring imagery such as vibrant bloom of flowers, honeybees in flight, and the signature “The Square” logo, these murals reflect a community in full bloom. Located in highly visible spots like Five Guys at 130 Gibbs St. and on Citizens Bank at 200C E Middle Lane, the murals are more than just decoration – they’re a sign of Rockville Town Center’s transformation and growth.

In September 2022, Canadian real estate firm, Morguard, purchased the retail portion of Rockville Town Square for $33 million, adding to its ownership of the Fenestra apartments since 2017. Originally known as “Rockville Town Square,” Morguard rebranded the area as “The Square” as part of the revitalization effort, and to improve its recognition and memorability.

“This is just the start of an exciting new chapter,” said Joshua Nolan, Associate Vice President at Morguard in a statement published by Business Wire. “We’re focused on creating a lively and welcoming space where people can come together, make memories, and enjoy new experiences.”

In collaboration with Viva Creative, a Rockville-based experiential communications agency, Morguard’s vision for The Square is taking shape. Morguard commissioned The Square’s murals from local artists around Montgomery County to reflect Rockville’s vibrant and diverse community, while encouraging interaction and discovery. The murals feature QR codes that lead to The Square’s website with information about nearby businesses and happenings, turning each mural into a digital gateway for exploration.

The murals are a prime example of placemaking, the process of transforming public spaces to strengthen the connection between people and the places they share. Through thoughtful design and creative storytelling, murals help transform ordinary spaces into destinations. At The Square, they create an inviting atmosphere that encourages visitors and residents to linger, explore and engage.

By integrating public art into its broader economic development strategy, Morguard has laid the foundation for increased foot traffic, stronger brand identity, and a vibrant local economy.

EYA closes on land for Rockshire Village redevelopment in Rockville

The new Rockshire community will feature 60 residential units, including 31 single-family detached homes and 20 townhomes.

Article originally published by citybiz: https://www.citybiz.co/article/718888/eya-closes-on-land-for-rockshire-village-redevelopment-in-rockville-advancing-retail-to-residential-redevelopment/

EYA, he DC-based market leader in the development of large-scale, urban infill residential projects, today announced the official closing on the land at the former Rockshire Village Center in Rockville, Maryland. The closing marks a major milestone in EYA’s plans to rezone and transform the long-vacant shopping center into a vibrant, connected neighborhood featuring a mix of new homes, retail and public open space that puts “life within walking distance.” EYA collaborated closely with the landowner, its investors, the city and the community to navigate a complex entitlement process, secure the rezoning, and bring a shared vision for the site to life.

Located on a 7.3-acre site in the Wootton High School district in Montgomery County, the new Rockshire community will feature 60 total residential units, including 31 single-family detached homes and 29 townhomes. As part of EYA’s commitment to delivering inclusive housing opportunities, 15% of the homes will be designated as Moderately Priced Dwelling Units (MPDUs). It will also feature 5,200 square feet of retail space, providing shops and amenities for the greater community.

“For years, this site has sat dormant within a thriving community. We worked closely with the city and community to transform this outdated commercial site into a vibrant, walkable neighborhood,” said Aakash Thakkar, Chief Acquisitions Officer at EYA. “This project highlights EYA’s talents for securing complex entitlements and creating a valuable new community that benefits our partners and the communities in which we build.”

The Rockshire redevelopment is a prime example of the growing trend of retail-to-residential redevelopments in the greater DC region. EYA’s redevelopment will replace the vacant retail strip with a vibrant, human-scaled neighborhood that brings much-needed housing while preserving space for community-serving retail. The plan includes up to 5,200 square feet of commercial space intended for retailers or office users that complement the residential character of the site, creating a dynamic community-focused space. Rockshire is just one of EYA’s several large-scale commercial-to-residential transformations across the DMV.

The design prioritizes pedestrian connectivity and open space. Public features will include a neighborhood park, a playground, an open lawn with seating and recreation areas, a pedestrian-friendly streetscape with connections to Rockshire Community Pool and the Carl Henn Millennium Trail and sitewide landscaping. The development will also provide 29 dedicated parking spaces for the adjacent Rockshire Community Pool, along with visitor parking and stormwater management infrastructure.

The project continues EYA’s broader mission to revitalize infill sites across the greater DC region and deliver walkable, connected neighborhoods that reflect the needs of modern residents while respecting the context of existing communities. Construction is slated to begin in August, with final completion of the project in 2027.

Liatris Inc. expands pilot facility for high-performance insulation with over $1 million in State and Local investment

The project is expected to create 15 direct skilled and semi-skilled jobs and more than 100 indirect and induced jobs, and will generate more than $20 million in economic impact through 2028

Rockville, Md., July 22, 2025 – Liatris Inc., a leader in cutting-edge thermal insulation solutions which enhance the affordability, comfort and safety of buildings, held a ribbon-cutting event today in collaboration with Governor Wes Moore and other state and local officials to announce a lab expansion funded in part by an $800K Build Our Future grant from the Maryland Department of Commerce. The newly announced expansion will create 15 direct jobs and over $20M in local economic impact through 2028.

The Build Our Future Grant Pilot Program—part of the governor’s Innovation Economy Infrastructure Act of 2023—provides grants of up to $2 million to private companies, nonprofit entities, local governments, or colleges and universities. This highly competitive funding is part of over $1M in state and local support for capital investments that will enable Liatris to double the size of its Rockville, MD headquarters to 10,000 sq ft and launch a pilot manufacturing facility to demonstrate high-performance and resilient building insulation products.

$60,000 from the County’s MOVE Grant for lease expansion as well as a pending $150,000 grant from the Montgomery County Technology Innovation Grant program, newly enacted in 2024 to provide critical funding for early-stage high-tech companies, and
$100,000 from the University of Maryland’s Energy Bridge Fund program which supports prior recipients of UMD’s Energy Seed Grant with cost sharing funds for federal grants

The expanded Rockville facility will allow Liatris to produce its first commercial scale insulation products and validate their cost and performance for larger scale mass production investment. Successfully prototyped technologies which are in development and scale-up with corporate partners include the only fully non-combustible (ASTM E136) insulation board at R-5 / inch, and an R-10 / inch “super-insulation” mat which would be the highest performance building insulation product.

“Liatris is redefining what it means to build efficiently, affordably, and sustainably,” said Gov. Moore. “Today, we are joined by leaders at all levels of the state, who have proudly invested not just in the success of Liatris, but an ecosystem of innovators. Because when you invest in innovation, you invest in growth.”

“We are incredibly excited and honored to receive this strategic funding support from the Maryland Department of Commerce, which helps address the critical market need for advanced insulation while adding skilled jobs to a key strategic industry in Maryland,” said Frank Yang, Liatris’s President & CEO. “The comprehensive and robust support provided by the state and county made it an easy decision to expand locally in Rockville, and we are proud to continue our commercialization journey here.”

“Congratulations to Liatris on the grand opening of its Super Insulation Prototype Center,” said Elana Fine, Montgomery County Economic Development Corporation Board Chair. “Liatris’ groundbreaking work in producing next-generation insulation materials reflects the kind of innovation that supports Montgomery County’s broader goal of eliminating 100 percent of greenhouse gas emissions by 2035. We’re proud to have worked with their team on securing a MOVE Grant to support this expansion and we are excited to see their continued success right here in Rockville.”

Liatris was represented in its facility search by Peter Rosan and Megan Williams of Cushman and Wakefield. The building owner, GlenLine Investments, was represented by Danny Sheridan and Amanda Davis of JLL.
