AfterShokz, a company that manufactures premium headphones, will be relocating its North America headquarters from New York to Austin, Texas.

The company currently operates out of WeWork University Park and has plans to move into a permanent space in Domain Place at 10727 Domain Drive in March 2020. It will lease two floors in the building. The company will employ up to 40 people by the end of the year and has plans to expand to a team of approximately 85 by the end of 2021.

“AfterShokz is a fast-growing company, and we needed to find a city for our corporate headquarters that could support the expansion of our brand,” said Kimberly Fassetta, CMO, AfterShokz. “Austin’s energy, culture, talent pool and community of leading technology innovators and thriving outdoor brands are what drew us to the city.”

"Opportunity Austin is pleased that AfterShokz has chosen to relocate its corporate headquarters to Austin," said Austin Chamber Senior Vice President, Economic Development, Charisse Bodisch. "Job creators continue to see our region as an ideal location to find the talent, innovation, and collaborative community that will help them grow and thrive. The addition of 85 jobs over the next three years is another win for our community and the people who continue to look for opportunity and prosperity in the region."
