InsideNoVa celebrates ribbon-cutting for new Manassas office

InsideNoVa held a ribbon-cutting for its new Manassas office on Thursday with the Prince William Chamber of Commerce and city leaders. The nearly 60 people who attended were able to tour the new space, meet InsideNoVa team members and enjoy networking and refreshments. InsideNoVa moved to the new office in May; it previously was in Woodbridge. "It’s important for us to be here because not only are we within walking distance of the courthouse and City Hall, which is great for our reporters, but we are centrally located in Prince William County – our primary coverage area," publisher Bruce Potter told attendees. Potter noted that the move was one of three major changes for the local news company this year - the others being its conversion to a new web platform and its expansion into offering targeted digital marketing solutions for local and regional businesses. Prince William Chamber of Commerce CEO Kristi Black and Manassas Mayor Ralph Smith also spoke during the event.
