TAMPA, Fla., Feb. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- OPSWAT, the global leader in Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) cybersecurity solutions, announced today that it has signed a 125-month lease with SkyCenter|ONE as the official location for its global headquarters. Connected to one of the nation's top-rated international airports, the prime location allows OPSWAT's global customers, partners and employees access to the company's headquarters directly from Tampa International Airport (TPA) and nearby hotels, dining, shopping, and entertainment.

"One of the biggest challenges after establishing Tampa as our global headquarters was finding an office that would meet the current needs of OPSWAT's high operational growth and offer the flexibility for future business needs," said Benny Czarny, OPSWAT Founder and CEO. "After much patience and a diligent vetting process, I'm excited to offer our global stakeholders an open, collaborative, and innovative space in the heart of one of the largest critical infrastructures in the region to carry out OPSWAT's mission." The 31,660+ square foot office space will undergo custom, open-concept design and construction before the company's 100+ Tampa-based employees make the transition in Q4 2022. Meanwhile, OPSWAT employees will continue to operate out of its current East Lake-Orient Park office, which the company obtained through its acquisition of Impulse in 2019.

SkyCenter|ONE offers many amenities unmatched anywhere else in the region, giving employees access to TPA's terminal from desk to gate in 10-minutes via the SkyConnect train, a 6,000 square foot state-of-the-art fitness center, a rooftop atrium, healthy onsite dining options, and panoramic views of Tampa Bay. Further elevating it as a Class A office building, SkyCenter|ONE is also Tampa's first LEED Platinum-certified building – the highest ranking offered by the U.S. Green Building Council that ensures a healthy, efficient and cost-effective building.

"VanTrust is excited to welcome OPSWAT and we're extremely thankful they have selected SkyCenter | ONE as its global headquarters," said Marc Munago, Executive Vice President, VanTrust Real Estate.

The news follows a banner year for OPSWAT, which has experienced 40% global growth in 2021, and 200% employee growth in Tampa alone. The new location will set the stage for the company's continued growth for years to come, especially given that Tampa Bay offers many opportunities for technology and cybersecurity companies like OPSWAT to expand given the region's deep talent base and quality of life.
