Sen. Jay Rockefeller:
"More and more, biometric companies from around the nation — and from all around the globe — are coming to West Virginia to do business," Rockefeller said. "West Virginia is a place where innovation and ingenuity, combined with a workforce that's second-to-none, are fueling economic growth."
Sen. Joe Manchin
"We're one of the best-kept secrets in the industry, but our little state is well-prepared and positioned as a national hub and a leader in the biometrics sector," Manchin said. "The word is definitely getting out—West Virginia is open for business and it's a great place to do business. I am certain that the biometrics industry will continue to look to our state as a partner in future ventures."
