Net Atlantic Headquarters Relocates to Historic Downtown Salem; Entrepreneurs and Inventors Have Called Neighborhood Home for More Than 200 Years
SALEM, Mass., Dec 15, 2003 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Net Atlantic, Inc. (www.netatlantic.com), the leading Web-hosting and Internet services company north of Boston, recently relocated its headquarters from the outskirts of Salem, Massachusetts to the Witch City's historic downtown.
Ironically, Net Atlantic's new headquarters was formerly the area switching hub for Bell Atlantic/Verizon and the New England Telephone companies. Net Atlantic operations were formerly based at 10 Jefferson Avenue before moving to 10 Federal Street, in the heart of Salem's downtown.
Andy Lutts, Net Atlantic founder and president, said, "Net Atlantic is in the connections business and our new headquarters connects us to our community and the world. We are now in the middle of Salem's center with ample parking and a short walk from the train station that connects Boston to its North Shore. Net Atlantic is very much a part of the professional hub of Salem, and we are a key element of the growing cluster of technology businesses in downtown Salem."
In the eight years since it was founded in 1995, Net Atlantic experienced the birthing pains of the Internet, survived the burst of the dot.com bubble, and is now the acknowledged leader of Web-hosting and Internet service companies north of Boston. Its staff, services and product offerings have grown steadily to parallel the strong growth of its client list.
"We may be located north of Boston, but freed by technology, like the mariners of old Salem, our market is the world," Lutts observed. "Our team now serves more than 1200 clients ranging from the North Shore Chamber of Commerce to The Tennessee Titans, The Miami Dolphins, Cessna Aircraft, CVS Pharmacy, Siemens GmbH, Boston law firm Ropes & Gray, and entertainers The Indigo Girls."
Andy Lutts confides, " We confronted the challenges of the market, survived and came out a stronger, resilient, more flexible and competitive supplier to those doing business on the Net. We know what the market wants and needs and deliver it with relentless dedication to service. That will be the key to Net Atlantic's continuing success from its new Salem base. "
"Salem, founded in 1626, breathes history--and not just about the witchcraft trials of 1692," observed Lutts.
That history is inspirational for a company on the cutting edge of the Internet. In fact, Net Atlantic, now located in a former telephone building, is located across the street from the site where Alexander Graham Bell demonstrated the first long distance telephone call one hundred and twenty-six years ago.
"In this modern age where Net Atlantic works on internet communication enabling technologies, it is ironic that Alexander Graham Bell's laboratory was around the corner from where we work daily," Lutts pointed out. "There he worked tirelessly to develop the telephone and forge advances for the hearing impaired."
"Our team is excited by the technology that connects people on the Net, and we marvel at the entrepreneurial spirit demonstrated by those who plied the maritime trades, to become America's first millionaires more than 200 hundred years ago. Their ships sailed from this small port to destinations as faraway as the Spice Islands, India, Japan, Korea, and China."
Lutts emphasized, "They were the risk takers and entrepreneurs of their time, committed to growing commerce and connecting people around the world just as we are."
