Kreative Technologies Expansion To Add 296 New Jobs In Fairfax

FAIRFAX, VA — Kreative Technologies, LLC, an IT company focusing on the federal health care industry, will be investing $1.5 million to expand its operation at 4114 Legato Road near Fair Oaks. This expansion will allow the company to quadruple its current workforce of 67 to create 296 additional jobs.

“Kreative Technologies is a homegrown Virginia company, and its recent exponential growth illustrates how businesses of all sizes can find success in our Commonwealth,” Governor Ralph Northam said, in a release. “We are thrilled that Kreative Technologies will be increasing its workforce substantially with nearly 300 new jobs in Fairfax County, where the company will continue to benefit from the dynamic tech talent pipeline in Northern Virginia.”

A small disadvantaged business that is certified in the U.S. Small Business Administration’s 8(a) program, Kreative moved its corporate offices to Fairfax County in 2019. After outgrowing its initial space within the first year, the company moved into a larger, 11,000-square-foot facility in early 2020.

“At Kreative Technologies, we are constantly striving to meet our customers’ missions by transforming their vision into reality, and we empower our clients to shape the future by cultivating creativity and harnessing the power of technology,” said Kreative CEO Adnan Karimi, in a release. “Located in the heart of Fairfax, it is critical to our ongoing collaboration to be close to our customer base. The region is well-known for being a hub for tech-savvy talent, both ready and able to take on the challenges of tomorrow. As we continue on our business growth trajectory, we anticipate an expansion in our home base through acquisitions and growing our exceptional relationships with our current clients, while engaging superior talent as a Virginia employer. Kreative has onboarded 38 new employees since our offices closed due to COVID-19 in March 2020. These crucial additions will allow Kreative to deliver even more customer-centric solutions in a region recognized for innovation and dedication to technology.”

The Virginia Economic Development Partnership (VEDP), Fairfax County Economic Development Authority and the Virginia Department of Small Business and Supplier Diversity (SBSD) teamed up to secure the project for Virginia.

Kreative will receive support for its job creation through the Virginia Jobs Investment Program (VJIP). This will help the company's recruitment and training activities.

“It is exciting to watch this tech startup company continue to expand in our Commonwealth,” said Secretary of Commerce and Trade Brian Ball, in a release. “Virginia boasts the second-largest technology workforce in the nation, and we are proud to support Kreative Technologies’ job creation through the Virginia Jobs Investment Program, a valuable resource that helps ensure a skilled labor pool for corporate partners as they grow.”
