Sophos moves into new global headquarters

Sophos's new global headquarters Sophos, a world leader in protecting businesses against viruses and spam, has begun the process of moving into its new global headquarters in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, UK.

The new purpose-built £32 million facility covers a total of 145,000 sq ft, is three stories high and is finished externally in glass, steel, alumnium and brick. The new building can house 600 employees and provides extensive visitor and training facilities for the company and its customers.

Other facilities include a roof garden and south facing staff restaurant overlooking wild landscaping and a lake.

The new building, designed by Bennetts Associates, combines environmental best practice with the requirements of a highly-serviced, IT-intensive building.

Sophos has made arrangements with the authorities to retain its existing mailing address, post code and telephone numbers.
