Pluralsight Breaks Ground on New Worldwide Headquarters in the
Heart of Silicon Slopes
Pluralsight, Inc. (NASDAQ: PS), the enterprise technology learning
platform, today broke ground on its new worldwide headquarters in
Draper, Utah. Pluralsight Co-Founder and CEO Aaron Skonnard and
company executives were joined by Gov. Gary R. Herbert and Draper
Mayor Troy Walker for the groundbreaking ceremony and celebration
that marks the official beginning of construction on the company’s
new state-of-the-art headquarters in the heart of Silicon Slopes.
The address of the new campus is 42 Future Way and paves the way
for future Point of the Mountain development across 700 acres to
support the growth of hundreds of new tech companies and the
expansion of Silicon Slopes.
Development of the new campus begins with phase 1 construction
of a 700-foot long, 350,000 square foot building that can
accommodate up to 2,000 team members. From the interconnected
stairwells to the expansive meeting areas, the design of the first
building will foster a feeling of connectivity and collaboration to
further Pluralsight’s mission to democratize technology skills.
Amenities of the four-story building will feature a full-service
cafe, medical clinic, fitness center, bike room, picnic area,
athletic courts, and a walking path with access to the nearby trail
system.
“What started in Utah, stays in Utah, and now expands in Utah.
Democratizing technology skills is our mission and our new campus
will play a critical role in supporting our growth to deliver on
that mission to create a better future for us all,” said Skonnard.
“We are excited to do this as part of the fabric of the Draper
community and look forward to contributing to the continued
expansion of Silicon Slopes and the growth of the Utah
economy.”
Perched on a plateau above I-15, the campus features
unparalleled panoramic views over the entire Salt Lake Valley,
immediate access to the interstate, and a future TRAX stop. The
vision of the campus is to promote a neighborhood feel and a
reflection of Pluralsight’s values and culture. Once completed in
spring 2020, Pluralsight will house team members from Farmington
and South Jordan in the new campus in Draper. Through its
expansion, Pluralsight plans to create approximately 2,400
additional jobs, $86.2 million in new state revenue, and an
estimated $371.7 million in capital investment over the next 10
years.
“Pluralsight represents so much of what is going right in Utah’s
technology ecosystem and is a respected leader of Silicon Slopes,”
said Governor Herbert. “We admire their vision, tenacity, and
commitment in delivering on their mission, and we are proud of what
they have accomplished. We look forward to the next chapter of the
company’s growth from their new headquarters in Draper.”
With full control of the 30-acre property, Pluralsight will
begin development of additional buildings on the campus as the
company expands to bring the total footprint to 800,000 to 1
million square feet of office space and room for up to 5,000 team
members.
“We are very excited to welcome Pluralsight to Draper City and
proud to be the home of their new worldwide headquarters.
Pluralsight will significantly invest in our community, bringing
thousands of high-paying jobs and a culture of civic mindedness
through its mission to democratize technology skills around the
world,” said Mayor Walker. “Pluralsight was recently ranked 9th
overall among large companies on Entrepreneur Magazine’s Top
Company Cultures List. They will be a fantastic fit in Draper City
because of the culture and lifestyle that Draper residents embrace.
We believe they have chosen the perfect location.”
Construction of Pluralsight’s worldwide headquarters caps off a
busy year for the company. In May, Pluralsight made its public
market debut on the Nasdaq stock exchange. In January, the company
opened its EMEA headquarters in Dublin to house the company’s
strategic business operations for the region and support its
growing customer base in Ireland and throughout Europe, Middle East
and Africa. With more than 1,000 team members worldwide,
Pluralsight has over 15,000 business accounts with users in 150
countries and counts 65% of Fortune 500 companies as customers.
