New Business Building

Discover Collaboration. Empower Your Future.

Architectural rendering of a large academic building with a stone exterior, tall narrow windows, and a modern upper level. The building sits on a landscaped campus lawn with trees and walkways, and several people are shown walking and biking in the foreground.

The second academic building will complete the Global Business and Analytics Complex. The facility will enable the Pamplin College of Business to meet the demand for a modernized learning environment and to accommodate the exponential growth of faculty and students over the last 30-plus years. It will be a collaborative magnet for talent, research, and education. The building will be approximately 93,000 square feet and house designated specialty experiential learning and showcase spaces, including the Apex Center for Entrepreneurs and Hokie Hospitality Lab. It will also feature student and industry partner collaboration and career services zones; student learning accelerator spaces and team rooms; administrative, faculty, and graduate student spaces; a small cafe; and departmental and conference spaces to support the consolidation of the college’s departments from other buildings on the Blacksburg campus.
