Bose Professional inaugurates fresh worldwide headquarters location
Hopkinton, Massachusetts - Bose Professional unveiled its newly built global headquarters, museum, and Experience Center on May 28, 2025, marking a significant milestone in the company's growth and expansion.
With an area of 50,200 square feet, the state-of-the-art structure was planned by OTJ Architecture, constructed by J. Calnan & Associates Construction, and acoustically consulted by Acentech. The museum, equipped with labs, testing facilities, and office spaces, celebrates Bose Professional's achievements over the past two years of its independence in the audio industry.
The museum display includes an assortment of vintage and modern loudspeakers, electronics, software, and portable systems that trace the company's history. Adjacent to the museum lies the Experience Center, an inviting space meticulously designed to facilitate trainings and demonstrations of Bose Professional's audio solutions.
The Experience Center, encompassing 5,600 square feet, is engineered to foster a tailored listening experience, recreating various installation environments. Director of Audio Systems Design Adam Shulman explained, "Our design caters to customers' unique listening experiences and the environments where they operate their systems." Equipped with a powerful technical infrastructure, the installation includes over 1,000 feet of metal conduit, four miles of speaker and data cable, and a vast expanse of acoustic treatment.
The facility's core laboratories specialize in mechanical and electrical engineering, testing, measurement, quality assurance, and fabrication, highlighted by the Klippel Lab - an acoustically isolated chamber dedicated to precise acoustic measurement and testing. In addition, the building features designated zones for the Finance, Marketing, Product, IT, Operations, Program Management, and People & Culture teams to encourage collaboration and growth.
