Brightree, a cloud-based health care company, recently opened its new 60,500 square-foot headquarters in Peachtree Corners’ Technology Park Atlanta.

The 1970s-era office building, formerly occupied by Honeywell, Inc., was completely renovated into open-layout work areas, gathering spaces and an outdoor amenity space for its 160-employee work force and guests.

“When considering a new location for our headquarters, we were won over by the vibrant technology community of Peachtree Corners,” said Matt Mellott, CEO of Brightree. “The recently opened Curiosity Lab, in particular, has generated a powerful synergy that speaks to the collaborative values of the companies and people here. We are thrilled to be part of the Peachtree Corners business community and believe this will play a significant role in our next chapter of growth and innovation.”

The city recently opened Curiosity Lab at Peachtree Corners, an autonomous vehicle and smart-city laboratory, as an economic development initiative to further develop Technology Park Atlanta into a technology-focused hub.

“Curiosity Lab has already had an impact by attracting a company that brought 160 new jobs to our city,” said City Manager Brian Johnson. “Another company, ASHRA, will bring over 120 jobs when it relocates in the fall. ASHRAE’s decision to move into Technology Park was also influenced by Curiosity Lab.”
