VIENNA, Va., Oct. 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Virginia Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) made a special appearance today at MicroTech corporate headquarters in Northern Virginia, where the technology systems integration leader hosted a town hall meeting attended by over 100 MicroTech employees and management, as well as invited guests and members of the press. Joining the session via video teleconference were MicroTech employees in the Greensboro NC office.  In his remarks about the current state of America, the Senator said, "It's time for people to check their Republican and Democratic hats at the door and put being American first."

During the hour-long event, the Senator discussed the economy, jobs, and the strength of business in the state. Senator Warner is a champion for small businesses, and has worked to improve the performance and accountability of federal agencies while also celebrating stand-out members of the federal workforce.

"The Senator has always been a passionate advocate of business in the state and the Virginia economy, and his efforts in office have made a positive impact on the state's No. 1 standing as a friend to business, and specifically small business. I made the right decision in basing MicroTech in Virginia because of political leaders like Senator Warner."

The Senator also toured the MicroTech Innovation & Integration Center (I2C) and learned more about emerging technology like the MicroKloud™ line of private cloud solutions.
