In the Beginning
In 1997, Sprint World Headquarters campus opened in Overland Park. A gated area with private streets intentionally blocked the private campus from neighboring businesses. Public access was not possible.
Fast forward 22 years.
March 2019, Occidental Management purchases the campus, naming it the Aspiria Campus. With the vision of creating a “live, work and play” neighborhood, Occidental Management removed guard stations, decorated the streets with welcoming flags, scheduled community events, welcomed local food trucks for weekly on campus community lunch and hosted Holiday fairs featuring local artists. A live, work and play neighborhood meant complete open access to the community.
A Hub for Both Entrepreneurial and Corporate Workers
As the Sprint headquarters, the former campus featured one company. Aspiria focuses on providing services to businesses of all sizes. From a one-person member office at Aspiria NOW, a coworking space, to worldwide corporate headquarters with hundreds of employees. Aspiria businesses range small business Class 101, ActionCOACH and DataMap at the campus coworking space Aspiria NOW to large corporate entities such as Yellow Corp, Hill’s Pet Nutrition Inc., T-Mobile, and TreviPay.
