About Talent Capital

DC, Maryland, and Virginia are rich in both talent and opportunity. Talent Capital was created not to duplicate existing efforts, but to elevate them — making the region’s resources more visible and accessible to those who need them most. Behind this platform stands a cross-border coalition of employers, economic development organizations, workforce agencies, training providers, nonprofit partners, and civic leaders. Paired with cutting-edge technology, that collective strength helps people connect to jobs and opportunities – and connect employers to talent – faster, smarter, and with less friction.
