Tewksbury - Known For The Companies It Keeps! WANG LABORATORIES, INC. The executive offices, engineering and manufacturing facilities of Wang Laboratories, Inc. are located on a Company-owned site of about 84 acres adjoining Interstate Route 495, in Tewksbury, Massachusetts. Sales and service offices are located in major cities of the United States, Canada and more than 35 nations around the world. The Company's stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Of the fifteen hundred people employed by Wang, 670 of those are located in the home office and are drawn from the Tewksbury - Lowell - Lawrence areas. Wang has a history of pioneering; preparing for followers. Founded in 1951, by Dr. An Wang to develop and market magnetic core devices and related digital circuit components, the Com- pany took a major step in 1964; entering the desk-top computer business and moving to its present location in Tewksbury. By the late 1960's users of Wang equipment increased at the rate of ten thousand a year. The calculations performed on Wang equipment range from science and engineering to applications in business, industry, finance, statistics, education and medicine. The technology involved in the design and manufacture of the Company's products is complex and subject to constant change. Accordingly, Wang Laboratories is committed to an extensive program of research and development. Wang Laboratories now has a calculator to suit every need in the entire price range of high performance electronic calculators. The outlook for the 1970's is one of further development and growth by bringing out still more new products of wide utility, in the tradition of the broad line of Wang series electronic calculators. Wang Laboratories, Inc. and Tewksbury are growing together. While Wang was adding a one million dollar addition to their North Street plant, Raytheon and Griffin Greenhouse Supplies also put up new facilities, all in the past year. Aside from new commercial expansions, Tewksbury residents saw a new school, post office and an addition to the State Hospital during 1970. Tewksbury offers good locations, excellent labor resources, a stable tax structure, excellent access to major interstate roads. New business is welcomed.
