DigitalGlobe opened their new Arlington, Virginia office — the new facility centralizes staff from DigitalGlobe’s downtown Washington D.C. Government Relations office established in 2003, and the Tyson’s Corner, Virginia National Security Programs office established in 2004.

The new Arlington office reflects DigitalGlobe’s commitment to improving customer relations, service operations, and enables the firm to be closer to government customers, including federal civil, defense, and intelligence agencies. The new office will house DigitalGlobe’s Government Relations staff, responsible for DigitalGlobe’s policy and Congressional lobbying efforts, and strategic outreach to U.S. Government decision makers, as well as the National Security Programs staff, responsible for defense and intelligence related sales, business development, and relationships with customers such as the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and national security industry partners. This announcement comes after recent DigitalGlobe commercial business office expansions in London and Singapore.
