Leading CPaaS Provider More Than Doubles Its Office Space at Design Center of the Americas Building
Miami, FL – Oct. 22, 2021 – Newmark announces it has completed a 12,627-square-foot office expansion lease with IntelePeer, a leading Communication Platform as a Service (CPaaS) provider at the Design Center of the Americas building in Dania, Florida. Supporting the company’s recent growth, the 4,493 square foot expansion brings IntelePeer’s office space to a total of 12,627 square feet.
Newmark Managing Director Clay Sidner represented IntelePeer in the transaction. Sidner has partnered with IntelePeer for its national real estate needs for the past six years, completing five lease transactions during this time period. The asset owner, Cohen Brothers Realty Corporation—a private real estate development and management firm—was represented by John Criddle of Cushman and Wakefield.
“As a growing company, it is important that we have top-notch facilities that attract talent and foster hybrid collaboration among our employees and our clients,” commented IntelePeer CEO Frank Fawzi. “The Design Center provides IntelePeer with the amenities and inspiration we need to stay on top of our game, which is critical to our success.”
IntelePeer provides industry leading time-to-value and rapid time to improved digital customer experiences with solutions that work seamlessly with existing business software and infrastructure. According to independent research by Nemertes Research, IntelePeer’s Atmosphere CPaaS platform helps enhance customer experience ratings by 31%, increasing revenue by 28% and decreasing costs by 53%.
“This lease is a great example of the growth of the South Florida office market as tenants begin to assess their real estate needs post-pandemic,” said Sidner. “IntelePeer’s expansion is just one example of tenants recommitting to and expanding their office space needs in the region.”
According to Newmark Research, the Broward County office sector saw leasing activity tick upward between the first and second quarters of 2021, recording 210 lease deals totaling more than 575,000 square feet during the second quarter.
