Why it matters in Ottawa

Optical networking equipment. Ciena's Kanata North campus is roughly 425,000 sq ft and was announced as hosting more than 1,500 Ottawa employees, over half its global R&D team.

One of the three optical/telecom R&D anchors in Kanata North. Caution: the employee and campus figures above are from Ciena's own May 2015 announcement - the last figures I could verify from a Ciena source. Treat as directional, not current.

Employees: 1,500+ in Ottawa as stated in 2015; no current figure verified
