"We're delighted to welcome Splunk to the Santana Row community," stated Jan Sweetnam, Vice President-West Coast Chief Operating Officer for Federal Realty Investment Trust. "Splunk is exactly the type of leading, dynamic company that we targeted when we designed 500 Santana Row. Splunk's employees will have a tremendous work environment and will be able to take advantage of the built-in campus here at Santana Row with numerous choices for lunch, dinner, or after work socializing; a place to work-out; a broad selection of shops and services; and a hotel that accommodates meetings and overnight stays for visiting customers and vendors."
