Frederick Maryland Hubzone

Frederick Maryland Job Opportunities



Historically Underutilized Business (HUBZone) program to help small businesses create more jobs in economically distressed communities.


Mayoral Candidate Jason Judd Proposes Business Incubator
It would be located in Frederick's 'Hubzone'
Tuesday, September 29, 2009


A proposal to bring more jobs to Frederick was presented Tuesday by mayoral candidate Jason Judd. Standing at the intersection of East and South Streets while construction was underway on the roadway and the new Board of Education building, Judd recommended a business incubator. That's where small businesses share space in one location rather than purchase or rent facilities.

"If firms set up shop in the city's Hubzone, which is some of downtown and much of the city's east side, they'll have a leg up when it comes to bidding on these contracts," Judd says.

The "contracts" he was referring to come from the National Institutes of Health. NIH is taking bids on a project to upgrade the country's health care computer systems. The agency is expected to award $20-billion dollars to firms over a 10-year period. Orases in Frederick is assembly a team of local companies to bid on a significant portion of those contracts. "And we see a huge opportunity here in Frederick to build the infrastructure in a Hubzone area to help bring the work and new jobs to the area," says Nick Damoulakis, the President of Orases. He says 40% of the $20-billion NIH is awarding has been reserved for small businesses.

Judd says an incubator can help create jobs in Frederick.

He says no specific site has been designated for the facility. "There are buildings in the existing Hubzone that could be fitted to accommodate this kind of work," says Judd. "We'd have to add up the square footage that's available."

Judd says city has to work with the county and the state to get this project off the ground. "This isn't something I think the city should do alone," says Judd. "But I think it's an easy sell at the county and the state level."

The cost of operating this incubator could be less than $50,000 during its first year, according to Judd.

"This is a smart investment that will grow our local tax base and create jobs," says Judd in a statement.
