I saw an article in the local paper this morning that Cambium is moving
their HQ into the Old AT&T HQ (Bell Works) in Hoffman Estates. It
mentioned that this will allow them to have both Corporate and
Engineering at the same site. Hope we get some tours of their new space
once it's up and running.

"wireless infrastructure provider Cambium Networks moving its U.S.
headquarters from Rolling Meadows to Bell Works. The Motorola spinoff’s
35,000 square feet currently under renovation was not only the largest
new lease of 2023 at Bell Works but takes advantage of a novel
opportunity to have its corporate offices and engineering labs on the
same property.
“Here we’ve married the two,” Zucker said. “They’ve brought both of
their uses together. The village modified the zoning here to accommodate
that.”
The company’s research and development will be conducted in newly
equipped space on the first floor, with its offices and conference rooms
on the fourth.
Cambium Networks Senior Engineer Evan Boyack said there are few
facilities that could offer the combination of space. The international
company has a desire to stay in Chicago’s Northwest suburbs because it
remains the base of the talent pool Motorola attracted there.
Amenities such as the Fairgrounds World’s Fair restaurant and bar were
another attraction of Bell Works, he added.
“Having these amenities helps bring our engineers back to the office,”
Boyack said."
