The Verge OKC proudly announces that Apricot, a high-growth Oklahoma City startup, has transitioned from The Verge’s state-certified incubator and moved into its own independent office space in Oklahoma City after creating more than 35 jobs and building its tech team locally.

Sitting 168 feet high, the Citizen building on North Robinson Street in Downtown Oklahoma City was intentionally designed to remember the 168 lives lost 30 years ago in the Oklahoma City bombing.  The Verge OKC is proud to be located in such a special space for our community.
