Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for Wednesday, January 8, 2025.
We're starting off with some breaking news from the past few days. Unfortunately, we don't have any major local developments to report today, but we do want to remind everyone about the vibrant tech scene in our city. The Virginia Beach cybersecurity job market is booming, with a projected 31.5% growth through 2026. This is great news for those looking to start or advance their careers in cybersecurity. Major employers like Booz Allen Hamilton and Lockheed Martin are actively seeking talent, especially in areas like cloud security and IoT protection[2].
Moving on to today's job market snapshot, we see a lot of opportunities in the cybersecurity sector. Entry-level salaries start at around $78,753, and experienced professionals can earn up to $185,905. The city's tech scene is vibrant, offering numerous professional development and networking opportunities. If you're interested in breaking into the field, Nucamp's 15-week Cybersecurity Fundamentals bootcamp is a solid way to get started[2].
In real estate news, we don't have any notable commercial or residential property sales to report today. However, we do want to remind everyone about the ongoing development projects in our city. The City of Virginia Beach is always working on new projects to improve our community. You can stay updated on these projects by visiting the city's website[3].
From City Hall, we have some updates on recent decisions that affect our daily lives. The City Council had informal and formal sessions on January 7, 2025. You can find more information on these sessions and other city services on the City of Virginia Beach's website[3].
Weather-wise, it's a chilly morning today, with temperatures around 28°F. Make sure to bundle up if you're heading out. We'll have more on the weather outlook later.
In new business activity, we don't have any major openings or closings to report today. However, we do want to mention that the budget motel chain Motel 6 is being acquired by the parent company of Oyo, a hotel operator based in India. This could have implications for our local hospitality industry[5].
Looking ahead to community events, we have some exciting activities coming up. This weekend in Newport News, Huntley, the Virginia native who won "The Voice," is performing at the Ferguson Center for the Arts with The Academy of Dance and Gymnastics' "Christmas Extravaganza"[1].
In local school achievements, we have some sports news. Green Run defeated Landstown 59-57 during a game at Landstown High School[5].
For our feel-good community story, we want to highlight the active tech community in Virginia Beach. With numerous networking events happening all the time, it's a great place to build a career in tech and connect with like-minded individuals[2].
Moving on to today's crime report, we don't have any significant incidents to report from the past 24 hours. However, we do want to remind everyone to stay safe and vigilant.
Finally, let's take a quick look at the weather for today. It's going to be a cold day, so make sure to dress warmly. We'll have more updates on the weather and other local news tomorrow.
