Governor Brian P. Kemp today announced that Glytec, a major health tech company, will relocate its headquarters to Cobb County, adding 500 new jobs over the next several years.
“Georgia’s skilled workforce and business-friendly approach have fostered success for global healthcare technologies like Glytec, making the Peach State an international hub of innovation and growth in this field,” said Governor Brian Kemp. “This particular project will add high-paying jobs in Cobb County while serving as another reminder of Georgia’s status as the No. 1 state for business.”
Founded in Georgia by a licensed endocrinologist, the rapidly growing healthcare information technology company is a global leader in software and related services that manage insulin levels for diabetic patients in hospitals.
“Glytec started with a Georgia physician who realized there was a better way to manage inpatient diabetes care, and we wouldn’t be any more excited to come home,” said Glytec CEO Patrick Cua. “Georgia was the clear winner of our selection process for the growth stage of our company due to its favorable business environment, world-class global connectivity, and high quality of living for our employees. We appreciate the great work our partners at the Georgia Department of Economic Development and Cobb County did to make today’s announcement a reality.”
Glytec’s new global headquarters will be located at 2300 Windy Ridge Parkway near Cumberland. Initial local spending on fitting out the headquarters is estimated at $100,000, with significantly larger expenditures on real estate and capital as growth continues.

The addition of 500 high-quality jobs will create new opportunities for our residents while driving continued investment in our local economy.”
“The growth of metro Atlanta’s life sciences and technology sectors is powered by our greatest asset: talent,” said Katie Kirkpatrick, President and CEO of the Metro Atlanta Chamber. “With world-class universities and a deep, diverse workforce, companies like Glytec have the people they need to innovate and scale. That access to talent continues to fuel our region’s momentum.”
Statewide Project Manager Haley Casola represented the Georgia Department of Economic Development (GDEcD) on this project in partnership with Select Cobb, Georgia Power, and the Metro Atlanta Chamber.
“Choosing where to scale operations is a pivotal moment for a growing company, and we are thrilled that Glytec has chosen Georgia for its global headquarters,” said GDEcD Commissioner Pat Wilson. “With a strong healthcare technology sector and a growing life sciences community, Georgia is an ideal place for innovators advancing new solutions in patient outcomes.
