Compugen is a privately owned and operated information technology company headquartered in Richmond Hill, a suburb of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

History

Compugen was founded by Harry Zarek in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada. Harry initially developed an interest in personal computing while he was finishing his PhD in physics at the University of Toronto. In 1981, he started a business building computers in the garage of his Toronto home and Compugen (short for Computer Generation) was created. Compugen was initially authorized to sell PCs with Hewlett Packard in 1984.

In 1989, Compugen opened its first branch office in Ottawa, Ontario. In 2000, Telecom giant Norigen acquired a significant part of Compugen. In 2002, this portion of the business was reacquired by Mr. Zarek from Norigen.[1] Compugen moved into its current Richmond Hill head office facility in 2010. In September of that year, Compugen merged assets with Canadian firm Metafore under the Compugen umbrella.[2]
