The Louisville, Kentucky-based for-profit college signed a lease for 42,145 square feet in Ingenuity Point at 12650 Ingenuity Drive in Orlando, according to Cushman & Wakefield’s first-quarter 2024 office report. The building is in Central Florida Research Park near the University of Central Florida.
Nashville, Tennessee-based HCA Healthcare Inc. (NYSE HCA) bought the college in 2020, according to Orlando Business Journal sister paper Louisville Business First. The acquisition of Galen effectively created a pipeline for HCA, which allows new nurses to feed the company’s hospital system amid a nationwide shortage.
