The new facility will feature state-of-the-art office, warehouse, national call centre and technology lab space. It is situated on Via Renzo Drive, a few blocks north of Compugen’s current Richmond Hill location. The new facility, designed and to be built by Urbacon Ltd., is part of the new Barker business park.
Compugen’s investment in the new facility is a response to the significant growth that the company has generated during the past few years, almost doubling its staff complement, widening its national network of branch sales and service locations, and expanding key areas of its business.
“Our growth and new business initiatives required expanded and upgraded office, laboratories, and operations facilities,” said Harry Zarek, President and CEO of Compugen Inc. “We have been a proud part of the Richmond Hill business community for many years and are pleased to continue this partnership with the Town and with York Region.”
