Where We Operate

11 Entities in 8 Countries

From Africa and the Americas to Asia, Europe, and the Middle East, our operations are driven by Harvard faculty and staff initiatives, and we’re always interested in growing our portfolio to support activities in more locations. In locations where we only provide a particular service, it may be possible to expand to other operations.

Where We're Going Next
