Since 1953, the Sobrato Family has played a pivotal role in shaping Silicon Valley with unique facilities that provide compelling benefits for forward-thinking companies. Founded by John A. Sobrato in 1979, The Sobrato Organization today remains a family-owned firm with no outside investors or joint venture partners. Led by our Chairman and Founder John A. Sobrato and his son, John M. Sobrato, who serves as Chief Executive Officer, our firm is known for integrity and dedication. Consistent with our lifelong belief in giving back, in 1996 we formalized our charitable giving through establishment of our family foundation, and have since donated nearly $315 million in cash and real estate to our communities through the Sobrato Philanthropies.
