Vermillion, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRML), a molecular diagnostics company, today announced that it is relocating its corporate headquarters from Fremont, California to Austin, Texas. Vermillion has executed a two-year lease for a new principal place of business at 12117 Bee Cave Road, Building Two, Suite 100, Austin, TX 78731. Vermillion will continue to operate research and development, regulatory and quality operations in California. All other functions will be conducted at the Austin offices.
"This move allows us to take advantage of Austin's strong talent pool and cost-effective environment to continue to build the company into a leading provider of novel, high-value diagnostic tests," said Gail S. Page, CEO and Chair of the Board of Directors of Vermillion. "Austin's central location also facilitates more efficient and effective interaction with our national sales force and our strategic partners on the East Coast, such as Quest Diagnostics and Johns Hopkins University, as well as our colleagues on the West Coast, such as PrecisionMed and Stanford University."
The move is expected to be completed in September 2010.
