Circle unveiled plans for a new global corporate headquarters for Circle Internet Group, Inc. based in the iconic One World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan at an event hosting industry, political leaders and key partners who have been central to Circle’s growth and success.
The news marks a milestone moment for digital assets, Circle, New York, America and the US Dollar.
Jeremy Allaire, Co-Founder and CEO of Circle said:
“Circle’s vision for a new internet financial system is coming alive in a tremendous and exciting way. One World Trade Center and all it stands for – freedom, strength and a projection of America’s central role in the global economy – are the catalysts of global prosperity. Our new headquarters near the top of One World Trade Center is a symbol of the trust, security and stability we’re building as a critical infrastructure provider for the future of finance.”
Configured as a convening space to reflect Circle’s mission of building a more open, inclusive, safer and efficient global economic system, the new headquarters “spans the entirety of the 87th floor and is set to open in early 2025.”
Entrepreneurs, developers, partners, innovators, technologists, heads of state and government leaders will convene with Circle to “create, dialogue and build the new internet financial system together.”
Allaire said they are investing in New York and America with the decision.
Originating in Boston, and like many technology-driven companies, Circle has “scaled out largely as a remote-first operation, employing almost 1,000 employees across 36 US states and 14 countries.”
Circle employees have a presence in “many of the world’s cities including New York, Berlin, Boston, Dublin, London, Paris, Singapore, San Francisco Bay, São Paulo and Taipei.”
In over a decade of operations, New York has become “a major hub for Circle employees.”
