Synacor Inc – a cloud-based software and services company serving global video, internet and communications providers, device manufacturers, governments and enterprises – has relocated its headquarters from the waterfront (Waterfront Village at the Erie basin Marina – 40 La Riviere Drive) to HANSA Workspace in Buffalo’s Central Business District.
The co-working environment at Hansa provides Synacor’s 40 local employees with the flex space that they require in an ever-changing workplace environment, especially in a post-pandemic world.
Synacor employs approximately 220 in 7 countries, including Canada, UK, Netherlands, Japan, Singapore, India, and US.
“Synacor has completely embraced the hybrid workplace for all employees,” noted Jody L. Sirianni, Vice President of Human Resources for Synacor. “Our employees love being able to decide where they work, and we felt that HANSA’s flexible workspace provided a culture that was modern, motivating, and embraces this new way to work. The new Synacor office at HANSA provides our team with a furnished private suite, great amenities, plus the ability to ‘flex’ our space as our workforce needs change and business evolves.”
HANSA is also primely located close to a number of top restaurants, the Chippewa District, the Genesee Gateway, and the Main Street spine with access to the Metro Rail. The dynamic workspace proved to be ideal for Synacor, which signed up for one of the Private Team Suites. These suites feature:
- Their own private spaces for offices, conference rooms, and multiple workstations
- Access to six on-site meeting rooms accommodating up to 43 people
- Event space for up to 150 people is also available to HANSA members and can be reserved by non-members if they need the space for a day.
On top of providing adequate space requirements for its local employees, HANSA also offers numerous coveted workspace amenities. These modern conveniences and services include high-speed internet, printing, copying, scanning, on-site support team (from 9a-5p, M-F), complimentary fresh coffee and snacks available in an open concept kitchen with café seating, meditation room, outdoor patio, a mother’s room, private changing rooms with showers, locker and indoor bike storage, and virtual mailbox and office services.
Synacor creates innovative access and communications that provide the best user experience in the most secure way possible.
“HANSA provides the type of workspace forward-thinking companies are looking for,” commented Kellena L.W. Kane, President and Co-Founder of HANSA workspace on Ellicott Street. “From entrepreneurs and remote workers, to growing startups and even established companies who desire an enhanced office experience, HANSA has really stood-out as a place both employers and employees want to be. The environment is very collaborative. Many of our members have formed new business connections, and some have even partnered on new business ventures.”
Synacor – founded and headquartered in Buffalo (1998) – joins the company’s satellite offices in Japan, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and India, in transitioning to a more flexible co-working environment.
