WILLIAMSBURG — GOV. KATHY HOCHUL on Wednesday celebrated the opening of Queen One’s new global headquarters, the Rise and Fly Vision Centre, at 25 Kent Ave. in Williamsburg. The 30,000-square-foot facility marks a $10 million investment and is expected to create 600 high-tech jobs over five years while driving $67 million in AI and e-commerce R&D. Supported by up to $6 million in Excelsior Jobs Program tax credits, the headquarters will serve as Queen One’s hub for brand personalization, AI development and e-commerce innovation. 

Officials said the project strengthens Brooklyn’s growing tech corridor, which has added nearly 35,000 jobs statewide since 2021.
