Gartner has maintained a long-term presence in Southwest Florida as a result of their strategic partnership with Cushman & Wakefield and a strong relationship with the local economic development organization. As Florida’s technology industry has expanded, Gartner’s presence has grown steadily, with multiple expansions over the last 20 years. As one of Lee County’s largest employers, Gartner was ready to expand their existing Ft. Myers campus, Gartner Campus North, which contains approximately 300,000 SF. A comprehensive study of expansion opportunities, including existing buildings and sites surrounding market as well as Gartner Campus North resulted in a decision to extend Gartner’s footprint across Daniels Parkway to create Gartner South Campus. • Cushman & Wakefield negotiated a favorable land lease with Port Authority, obtaining approximately 19 acres of land at Daniels Parkway for Gartner’s expansion. This property is party of the Southwest Florida International Airport Skyplex Development, a 1,150 acre mixed-use development. • Cushman & Wakefield collaborated with the Port Authority, Army Corp of Engineers and other parties to address wetland mitigation and ensure the project could be feasibly delivered on time. • Cushman & Wakefield organized a developer selection process, resulting in securing TPA Group as the project’s developer. C&W negotiated flexible, competitive lease terms for Gartner. • Cushman & Wakefield negotiated an option for Gartner to have the rights to the adjacent land to create a future strategic growth plan for Gartner.
