Kernel Group Launches in Europe While Scouring Austin for More Headquarters Space

AUSTIN-One down, four to go, says The Kernel Group, a 10-year-old Austin software company that has just opened a headquarters in Brussels.

In the next three to six months, offices will open in Munich, London and Paris and most likely in that order, Dave Malmstedt, Kernel Group vice president, told GlobeSt.com. “We are going to open as quickly as possible,” he says. Within two weeks, the company will open a Singapore office.

The company also is looking for larger space to house its Austin headquarters, he told GlobeSt.com. The software solutions provider currently occupies slightly less than 10,000 sf at 1250 S. Capital of Texas Hwy. A contract has just been inked with the Austin office of The Staubach Co. to find 20,000 sf to 25,000 sf. “We are looking everywhere,” says Malmstedt. “We certainly like the 360 Loop where we are now, but we wouldn’t narrow it to that.”
