Two Companies Join Boca Raton Innovation Campus

Boca Raton Innovation Campus (BRiC), a fast-growing technology and life sciences hub in Boca Raton, recently reached lease agreements with two companies to continue its expansion efforts. The new tenants include Guident, a leading developer of software solutions for remote monitoring and teleoperation of autonomous vehicles, and Arete, a top incident response and cybersecurity provider.

The office complex, the former IBM research and development facility, is owned and operated by CP Group, Florida’s largest office landlord. Guident is relocating from Florida Atlantic University’s Tech Runway and will occupy a 5,000-square-foot space to host the first national autonomous vehicle remote control command center. Arete is moving from its Boynton Beach location to occupy a 13,500-square-foot space. 

Other tenants that have moved to BRiC since CP Group’s acquisition in 2018 include Boca Raton Regional Hospital, Modernizing Medicine, Kroger, Canon, and Total Wine.

“Arete looks forward to being a part of the BRiC community alongside other innovative organizations,” Joe Mann says, Arete’s CEO. “We are excited to create a space where our team can collaborate and thrive.”

CP Group is currently using a $100 million capital improvement investment to transform the 1.7-million-square-foot facility into an amenity-rich campus similar to Google’s campus. It will include a Science Technology Engineering Art and Math (STEAM) lab, Boca Raton’s first food hall, a presentation hall for up to 1,000 people, two coffee shops, an autonomous grab-and-go, a wellness center and more. Current amenities include a farmer’s market, fitness center, on-site daycare, outdoor courtyards, running and biking trails and large displays of art, including an NFT exhibit and a 30-foot-tall, mirrored stainless-steel outdoor sculpture.

“As we attract innovative organizations like Guident and Arete, BRiC continues to solidify its standing as South Florida’s preeminent location for fast-growing creative and technology companies,” Michael Perrette says, General Manager for BRiC. “We look forward to continuing BRiC’s history of innovation by offering both amenities and dynamic office environments that allow us to compete with Silicon Valley and bring these businesses to Boca Raton.” 

CP Group has also proposed the addition of a grocery store, medical offices, residential, retail and hotel spaces as the next phase of BRiC’s transformation into a mixed-use, live-work-play destination. Learn more by visiting https://workatbric.com/futureofbric.

Drew Limsky

Editor-in-Chief

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
