Ceres Tag, an Australian developer of direct-to-satellite animal monitoring technology, has chosen Overland Park, Kansas, to be the home of its first-ever North American headquarters.

Ceres Tag’s solar-charged smart monitoring sensors communicate directly with satellites and are attached to the ear of wildlife or livestock. The technology offers insights previously unavailable to farmers, ranchers and wildlife managers to improve tracking accuracy, productivity and conservation. By delivering plug-and-play solutions that integrate with existing software infrastructure, Ceres Tag empowers end-users with a scalable and less intrusive approach to animal location and health monitoring.

“The Kansas City region was the clear choice for our North American headquarters,” said David Smith, founder and CEO of Ceres Tag. “This region offers the perfect environment to grow our presence and deliver our groundbreaking technology to businesses and conservation organizations across North America.”

Ceres Tag’s new office will initially support four to six employees, with additional sales representatives positioned strategically across the United States. The company’s arrival is expected to pave the way for more Australian animal health innovators to land in the Kansas City market, as well.

The company’s Overland Park headquarters will be located at 6550 Sprint Parkway, Suite 200, Overland Park, KS 66211.
