Markforged Inc. today announced that it has completed the transition to its new global headquarters at 60 Tower Road in Waltham, Mass. The company said its new facility unites employees who had previously been split between its corporate offices and a research and engineering facility in Watertown, Mass.
“This move is a significant milestone for Markforged,” said Shai Terem, President and CEO of Markforged. “It will allow us to continue developing cutting-edge technology and solutions faster than ever before so that our manufacturing customers around the world can rely on us for mission-critical part production right on their factory floors.”
Markforged said it is enabling more resilient and flexible supply chains by bringing industrial 3D printing right to the point of need on the factory floor. The company said its Digital Forge additive manufacturing platform allows the production of strong accurate parts in both metal and advanced composites. It recently added simulation features to its software.
Markforged moves to unify team
By unifying its employees under one roof, Markforged said its corporate, commercial, and engineering teams can collaborate better and accelerate development of its hardware, software, and materials innovations.
“We are thrilled to have our entire metro Boston team in one location, as this will foster a stronger sense of community and collaboration,” said Dorit Liberman, chief human resources officer of Markforged.
“Not only can we be more efficient, but our new home gives us the room to have fun and be with each other more often,” she added. “We believe that this move will enhance our ability to foster our ‘One Team’ culture as we continue to grow.”
Room for growth, demonstrations
Markforged said its new global headquarters can accommodate more than 500 employees and includes an interactive product showroom and state-of-the-art engineering labs. The company said it features a modern design and amenities to promote teamwork, innovation, and employee well-being.
The 120,000 sq ft of LEED Gold-certified office space includes open work areas, meeting rooms, and a variety of breakout spaces for team members to share ideas.
Markforged claimed that it has more than 10,000 customers in over 70 countries.
