MedPro to Cut Ribbon on Expansion
Fort Wayne-based MedPro Group is set to cut the ribbon Wednesday afternoon on the $4.3 million expansion to its corporate headquarters. The expansion, which began last year, is expected to create up to 70 jobs by 2018.
The healthcare liability insurer cited increased demand for the expansion, which includes the addition of more than 10,000 square-feet to its Fort Wayne campus. The company employs more than 700 throughout the country, including nearly 400 workers in Indiana.
"Since 1899, MedPro Group has been proud to call Fort Wayne our home," said Tim Kenesey, chief executive officer of MedPro. "As we further strengthen our position as the nation’s leading healthcare liability insurer and continue our expansion globally, both Fort Wayne and the state of Indiana provide an excellent environment for business and employee growth as well as expanded customer solutions."
MedPro Group was acquired by Berkshire Hathaway Inc. in 2005. Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry will speak at the ribbon cutting ceremony, which is scheduled for 4:00 p.m.
