GE Digital finds temporary downtown Providence home

PROVIDENCE – GE Digital, a tech division of the General Electric Co., is temporarily moving into downtown offices here until the beginning of 2017.

The company, which earlier this month announced it would open a tech center in the city, will lease space on a temporary basis at 10 Dorrance St., Suite 700, according to company spokeswoman Amy Sarosiek. GE Digital, a burgeoning tech arm of the international conglomerate, is expected to hire 100 people over the next year at an average annual salary exceeding $100,000. The company is seeking a permanent location, Sarosiek said, but expects to occupy the Dorrance Street offices near Kennedy Plaza until the beginning of 2017.

GE expects to announce its permanent location within the next two months. •
