MISSION HILLS, CA – December 15, 2015 – UNICOM® Technology Park, Inc. (“UNICOM”) today announced that it has closed on its acquisition of one of the largest technology parks in the Washington DC area, known as UNICOM Technology Park I & II (formally Washington Technology Park I & II), located in Chantilly, Virginia. These class “A” office buildings are located on 51.9 acres in a park-like setting convenient to the location of several government agencies. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
“UNICOM is very excited to acquire these premier IT Real Estate properties as the regional headquarters for our UNICOM Government division,” said Mr. Corry Hong, founder, president and CEO of UNICOM Global. “Our commitment to expand and extend our IT Real Estate portfolio and accommodations for Federal Government agencies is reflected in this investment. With state of the art facilities, including Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (“SCIF”) conference centers and a large auditorium to hold key events, these properties demonstrate UNICOM’s willingness to invest in the future of our country, and to create up to 1,000 new jobs.”
UNICOM Technology Park I & II is located just south of the Washington-Dulles International Airport, in an 1,100-acre office park developed in the 1980s that includes a colonial style conference center with 48,000 square feet of meeting space, a golf course and athletic fields:
UNICOM Technology Park I, which contains a total of 470,406 square feet on 34.89 acres, includes a five-story, Class “A” 427,196 square foot building;
UNICOM Technology Park II, a six-story Class “A” building containing 223,610 square feet, was built on 17.02 acres; and
A two-story, 43,210 square foot building known as The Commons. The Commons is a combination of office space and amenities, including a health & fitness center, an auditorium, conference room, and a full-service cafeteria. The Commons amenities are shared with both UNICOM Technology Park I & II via an underground walkway.
UNICOM Technology Park I & II will be the regional headquarters for UNICOM Global housing its over 40 corporate entities including UNICOM Systems, UNICOM Government, UNICOM Engineering, U.S. Robotics, Firetide, CICS.com, iET Solutions, Detec, SoftLanding, illustro, Memeo, Macro 4, Eden.com, UNICOM Capital and UNICOM Global Travel Services. UNICOM plans to offer the conference facilities to host key events for government agencies, as well as providing datacenter, call center, command center, innovation center, education center, R&D lab, manufacturing, distribution center and lifecycle logistics services at the location.
NASDAQ:GTSI was acquired by UNICOM Global in 2012, and rebranded as UNICOM Government, Inc. Following the acquisition, the new organization has been strengthened with the financial foundation, depth of relationships and increased commitment to technical excellence of UNICOM Global. Since the acquisition, UNICOM Government has successfully won prime positions on several keystone contracts including the $20b NASA SEWP V, the $20b CIO-CS contract with NIH and the $22b DHS Eagle II contract.
