SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. — An Atlanta-based sales and marketing firm plans to locate in the West Virginia Regional Technology Park in South Charleston with plans to create as many as 300 new jobs.

Officials with N3 were on hand for the announcement in Monday afternoon along with tech park, state officials and U.S. Senator Joe Manchin.

“The WV Regional Technology Park is a perfect fit for N3 and our growing business — its proximity to excellent colleges and universities, and being located in the heart of the Kanawha Valley, will help us recruit the talent we need to serve our clients,” N3 CEO Jeff Laue said.

N3 will be located in Building 2000.

“Great things continue to happen at the Tech Park,” said Dr. Rusty Kruzelock, CEO of the WVRTP. “We are thrilled to welcome another innovative company to the Tech Park and, with it, good-paying jobs.”

The company hopes to hire graduates from area colleges.

The technology park currently has about 650 employees with various companies.

This story will be updated.

Not much like the Champ plant jobs that used to be there.
But they’re jobs!

Says they’re going to be “high-paying” which could mean just about anything.

“High paying” is a politician’s way of saying more then minimum wage. Again they’re jobs! Better then no jobs, but not likely as good as the Union Carbide & FMC jobs that used to be there.

Evidence that Joe Manchin’s getting nervous!
