This year flew by. Looking at the whirlwind milestones in the DMV, that makes sense.
The region had plenty of accomplishments in 2024, like the federal government granting DC $100 million for digital equity and workers unionizing at Bethesda Game Studios. There were also some less-than-ideal moments, like Techstars ending its DC-based accelerator program.
Here’s an interactive timeline of the most notable events in the DMV ecosystem this year.
