How is the Roanoke Region important to your business?

Roanoke is the oldest Cox market in Virginia and the state’s largest metro area west of Richmond. The natural beauty of the region and its leadership in research and STEM career fields make it an ideal place for an innovative, community-oriented technology company like Cox, and we’re excited about the potential for economic growth in the region.

Why has your company invested in the Roanoke Regional Partnership?

Cox counts on the Partnership as a partner in advancing the region and our business.
