University of Dayton – River Campus”
VERSAILLES,
Ohio – (March 20,
2013) – Midmark Corporation, a leading provider of
medical, dental
and veterinary healthcare equipment solutions, today announced
it has
finalized lease negotiations and will move its headquarters to the 1700
South
Patterson Building on the University of Dayton's River
Campus. The
headquarters, named Midmark Center, referring to being
centrally located
between its Versailles campus and its innovation-focused facility in
West
Chester, Midmark Connect, will take place by July
2013. Midmark will
move approximately 60 positions from Versailles to Dayton,
including its
executives and certain corporate functions.
Speaking
about today’s announcement, Dr. Anne
Eiting Klamar, president and CEO of Midmark said, “The move to Dayton
will
provide us with enhanced opportunities to fulfill our vision
of becoming a
global leader in healthcare products and services that enable more
efficient
and effective patient care.”
Klamar,
who serves on the University of
Dayton's board of trustees, believes the University’s educational
philosophy
resonates with Midmark’s values to contribute to the greater social
good. “The
base of Midmark’s culture is our values. We live by our motto,
“Because we
care,” which supports our culture of making a positive
difference each and
every day for our customers, suppliers, and teammates,” she said.
Midmark
hopes to partner with the University of
Dayton through its intern and cooperative education programs.
In addition,
its new corporate offices will reside in the same building where the
University
offers MBA and other graduate classes, conducts cutting-edge research
and
operates the popular Osher Lifelong Learning Institute. Klamar
believes
this environment will provide numerous learning opportunities for
Midmark
employees.
Daniel
J. Curran, University of Dayton
president, welcomed Midmark's move to campus. “Like GE Aviation's new
EPISCENTER, Midmark will be an important addition to the Dayton
community and
our campus,” he said. “We think it's important to attract strong
companies that
can serve as real-world classrooms and spark economic development for
the
region.”
The
new headquarters will maintain more than
23,000 square feet on the fourth floor of the 1700 South Patterson
Building in
an area known as River Campus. The Versailles campus will
remain Midmark’s
largest site, housing primarily manufacturing, associated support
functions and the Customer Experience Department,
