The Ashforth Company announced the signing of two new leases at its Stamford, CT property, 707 Summer Street. BI Worldwide and Fugazy Sports & Entertainment, LLC have chosen this modernized office building for their new Connecticut offices, further solidifying 707 as a top location for businesses.
Fugazy Sports & Entertainment, LLC, specializing in logistics strategy, coordination, and execution for major sporting and entertainment events, will occupy 3,487 square feet. BI Worldwide, a global engagement agency that uses behavioral economics to create solutions for companies to engage their employees, customers, and channel partners, will occupy 2,222 square feet.
As the building owner and manager of the property, Ashforth purchased 707 Summer Street in 2002 and is headquartered on site.
“We are thrilled that, after an extensive search, both Fugazy Sports and Entertainment and BI Worldwide have chosen our 707 Summer Street property as their new office space,” said Ryan Harvey, CEO & President of The Ashforth Company. “Their decisions underscore the quality and appeal of our building and its great location which is a short walk to numerous amenities in downtown Stamford,” added Harvey.
“The location is ideal for our ongoing growth in Connecticut. The Ashforth Company has a great reputation in the community, and we feel the property offers outstanding value, especially with their headquarters on-site and its close proximity to downtown,” said Mary J. Rose, Director of BI Worldwide. “The team at Ashforth made our decision easy with their demonstrated level of service,” added Rose.
