BlueSnap,
an online payments technology company, today announced the expansion of
its headquarters, which is located in Waltham, MA. A ribbon
cutting ceremony will be held on June 12 to mark the opening of an
additional 12,000 square feet of office space. The event, which will
include an opportunity to tour the full space as well as a panel
discussion led by Ralph Dangelmaier, BlueSnap’s CEO, will be attended by
local business leaders in addition to BlueSnap customers, partners and
employees.
With this new space BlueSnap has expanded its staff, raising the global
headcount to approximately 165 employees worldwide. There are currently
65 BlueSnap employees in Waltham, and the leadership team plans to add
another 40 team members by the end of next year. The new space includes
a number of features to enhance the BlueSnap work environment, including
huddle spaces to foster collaboration and standing desks to encourage
mobility. Larger spaces will help support all-employee gatherings with
an improved open meeting area and encourage networking by providing more
opportunities to recharge during breaks in a large, communal lunch room.
Employees will also have a chance to celebrate this latest milestone
during the upcoming summer outing to a local Boston distillery. This
expansion will continue to support growth of the All-in-One
Payment Platform, which enables both B2B and B2C businesses to
increase sales and reduce costs.
“BlueSnap has seen rapid growth over the last year and significantly
expanding our corporate headquarters has been an essential step to
support this progression,” said Ralph Dangelmaier, CEO of BlueSnap. “We
are excited to come together today with other notable Boston area
business leaders to not only showcase our own growth but how the FinTech
market as a whole is thriving in the Bay State.”
Payment technology startups like BlueSnap, Flywire and MineralTree have
joined well-known players such as Bank of America and TSYS in
establishing Boston as a hub for financial technology and other related
services. By making Massachusetts the home of their corporate
headquarters, or choosing to have a large presence in the area, all of
these companies are now revolutionizing the industry from the east
coast. In order to explore this topic further, a panel of payments
industry experts will discuss why Boston is a hotbed for FinTech
investment and how these companies are currently addressing the most
significant challenges in the industry. The interactive panel will take
place before a ribbon cutting ceremony, and it will cover multiple
aspects of the booming FinTech market in Massachusetts and what this
means for the growing companies that are powering this industry shift.
Panelists include:
- Jordan Litke, SVP at Bank of America Merrill Lynch
- Henry Helgeson, CEO and founder of Cayan
- Mike Massaro, CEO at Flywire
- Micah Remley, CEO MineralTree
