McLean, Virginia
Home to Booz Allen Hamilton, Capital One, MITRE, and Palantir's DC-area office. McLean sits at the intersection of federal consulting, financial services AI, and intelligence community operations.

Capital One's headquarters drives one of the most advanced enterprise AI programs in financial services, with over 1,000 ML models in production. MITRE operates two federally funded research and development centers from McLean, advising agencies on AI adoption, cybersecurity, and systems engineering.
Palantir Technologies maintains its DC-area office in McLean, supporting government deployments and partner relationships. Mars, Hilton, and Freddie Mac also run significant operations here.
