Smithtown, NY Mason Technologies, a national leader in low-voltage technology integration specializing in structured cabling, audiovisual systems, data centers, and unified security solutions, celebrated the groundbreaking of its future corporate headquarters in the Long Island Innovation Park at Hauppauge.
Founded in 2002 by Jennifer Mason with just two employees, Mason Technologies has grown into the region’s premier technology integration firms.
At the time the company acquired the property at 395 Oser Ave., Mason Technologies employed 235 people and committed to creating an additional 25 jobs. The company has already exceeded that goal, now employing 275 W-2 employees, with plans for continued growth as construction moves forward on the new headquarters.
Mason Technologies partners with clients across many different industries to deliver quality, reliability, and long-term value to every project. Since its founding, the company’s mission has always been to work with individuals and organizations who help change the world, primarily in healthcare spaces, higher education, and government projects.
“Everything we do is guided by the Mason Way which is our commitment to continuous improvement, smart solution, and a people-first culture,” said Jennifer Mason, founder and CEO of Mason Technologies. “Mason’s new headquarters will showcase next generation technology that is both simple to use and visually astonishing. There will be no space like this in the country.”

We anticipate that in one year, there will be a spectacular 69,000 s/f building that is the centerpiece of all modern technology. There will be a 2,800 s/f atrium and a dedicated exhibition and event space intended for networking, collaboration, and technology demonstrations.
Mason said, “we want this to be a place where companies and organizations across our region can connect, innovate, and grow together. We’re excited for what’s ahead.”
In talking about the history of Mason Technologies and the desire to build its future home, Adam Mason, VP of partner relations said, “We could not have done it without all our wonderful people at Mason. Everyone at Mason is part of our family, and when it came time to decide where to invest in our future headquarters, the choice was clear. Suffolk County is home to some of the greatest people and brightest talent in the country, giving us a real competitive advantage.”
