Technology company from New York moves its headquarters to Miami
Mar 18, 2025
A data security company that is publicly traded and formerly had its headquarters in New York has moved its headquarters to Miami, according to a spokesperson for the company to Business Journal.
Varonis (Nasdaq: VRNS) has secured a space of 1,663 square meters on the entire 11th floor of the 28-story building 801 Brickell, located in the Brickell Financial District in Miami. According to a statement from Colliers, the brokerage firm that represented the landlord in the negotiations, the space is still undergoing renovations.
However, the company already mentions on its website that its corporate headquarters is on the eighth floor of 801 Brickell. In a presentation to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 6, Varonis stated that the relocation would take place in the first quarter, which spans from January 1 to March 31.
Varonis is expected to move to the 11th floor at some point in the third quarter, according to Stephen Rutchik of Colliers.
Founded in 2004, Varonis employs 2,400 people worldwide. The company provides software that allows clients to detect, correct, and automatically alert about security issues in their data, whether in the cloud, in SaaS applications, on local servers, or in a hybrid combination, according to a spokesperson for the company.
Its previous headquarters was on the 28th floor of 1250 Broadway in New York, which still ranks among the 14 offices of Varonis in the U.S., Europe, Israel, and Australia.
Varonis did not immediately respond to questions about the reasons for its move to Brickell.
Since the pandemic, several companies have relocated their main or regional headquarters to South Florida. Among the most cited reasons are the relocation of their executives to the region and the interest in attracting new clients and talent.
Additionally, many companies have opened offices in South Florida—especially in Brickell and in downtown West Palm Beach—due to the increase of high-income households in the region.
Clay Sidner and Jeremy Hakala of Newmark represented Varonis in the lease negotiation.
Colliers reported that several other companies have also secured spaces, renewed contracts, or recently moved to 801 Brickell, an office building of 38,554 square meters built in 1984. After an investment of $30 million in renovations in 2020, its previous owner, Nuveen, sold the property to Monarch Alternative Capital and Tourmaline Capital Partners for $250 million in October 2023. By the third quarter of 2024, rents in the building reached $94.89 per square meter.
Stephen Rutchik and Tom Farmer of Colliers represented the owners Monarch and Tourmaline in the negotiations.
