“Canada is a destination of choice for investment by leading technology companies like Boomi. Their expansion is a testament to the work of Canada’s skilled tech talent and to the thriving digital technology ecosystem in Vancouver.”
“Deloitte has had an alliance with Boomi for over 5 years and has witnessed the company’s strong growth and expansion globally,” said Morgan Arndt at Deloitte Canada. “We’re glad to see Boomi establishing a greater presence in Canada, to support this important market. As businesses in Vancouver and beyond continue their digital transformation journeys, the need to intelligently connect and integrate their applications and data is greater than ever, and we’re proud to work with Boomi to bring these capabilities to Canada.”
Boomi’s new Center of Excellence, to be located in downtown Vancouver, will leverage and expand upon its existing, home-grown executive talent in the region, who bring expertise from leading technology organizations such as Crystal Decisions, Business Objects, SAP, and Google. Boomi recently announced executive appointments with global responsibilities that will be based in the region, including Chief Commercial Officer, Greg Wolfe; Chief Marketing Officer, Alison Biggan; Chief Strategy Officer, Rahim Bhatia; and Global Commercial Market Vice President, Troy Anderson, who will be leading the Vancouver office.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Boomi to Vancouver as a new member of our city’s rapidly expanding tech sector,” said Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim. “Boomi’s decision to bring jobs and investment here further demonstrates Vancouver growth as a global hub for technology and innovation.”
“Boomi is a welcome addition to British Columbia’s thriving tech ecosystem. Technology is one of B.C.’s fastest-growing sectors, with more than 11,000 companies employing more than 131,000 people,” said The Honorable Brenda Bailey, Minister of Jobs, Economic Development and Innovation. “Our tech industry is at the heart of our StrongerBC Economic Plan, which includes a large expansion in tech education with 2,900 new tech seats at post-secondary institutions producing 1,000 additional tech-grads a year. Boomi will provide a great opportunity for B.C.’s world class tech workers to enter the diverse field of intelligent integration and automation.”
“This expansion is an exciting opportunity for Boomi to tap into the pool of talent in a vibrant and dynamic city that embraces innovation and technology,” says Boomi CEO, Steve Lucas. “Having worked closely with many technology leaders in the Vancouver area, and with our commitment to providing industry-leading integration and automation solutions, we are eager to bring our expertise to Canada and contribute to the flourishing tech community in the region.”
This news follows two additional growth announcements from Boomi. The company announced it is doubling its current engineering and technical workforce as it opens a dedicated office in Bengaluru, India, and increased investment in Japan to meet growing global demand for its category-leading solutions.
