WATERLOO (October 31, 2025)

Avia NG Airport Consultants is proud to announce the relocation of its Kitchener, ON office to a new, larger space within evolv1 - Canada’s first Zero Carbon Building located in Waterloo, ON. This move marks another milestone in Avia NG’s strategic and ongoing expansion across Canada, reinforcing our presence in one of the nation’s most vibrant innovation corridors and positioning us for continued growth in a region known for its forward-thinking talent and technology.

“This relocation is more than just a change of address - it’s a reflection of the incredible momentum we’re experiencing as a company,” says Avia NG CEO, Gene Cabral. “As our team and service offerings continue to grow, we’re investing in spaces that support innovation, collaboration, and sustainability, values that define our approach to the exciting work we do.”

Over the past year, Avia NG has seen significant growth in both project scope and team size, driven by increasing demand for forward-thinking infrastructure solutions in the aviation industry. The decision to move into evolv1 aligns with Avia NG’s commitment to future-ready practices and its vision for sustainable development.

Located in Waterloo’s Research + Technology Park, evolv1 places Avia NG at the heart of a thriving ecosystem of tech innovators, research institutions, and sustainability leaders - offering the ideal environment to foster strategic partnerships, attract top-tier talent, and drive forward-thinking solutions in aviation infrastructure. The LEED Platinum-certified building features advanced sustainable technologies including solar arrays, geothermal systems, and rainwater harvesting.

“Our new office space has been thoughtfully designed to reflect our values,” says Imran Rasheed, Project Manager at Avia NG. “We’ve incorporated sustainable materials, optimized natural light, and created flexible workspaces that support creativity and teamwork.”

Josh Horst, Planning and Advisory Practice Lead, explains that this change highlights both the ongoing expansion of Avia NG’s Planning and Advisory service line and the rising need for strategic advice throughout the aviation industry. As projects grow in complexity and scope, he emphasizes that “having an environment that fosters teamwork and innovation is vital to consistently achieving impactful outcomes for our clients – and our new office provides exactly that."

Nick Walters, Buildings Practice Lead, adds, “As our Buildings team continues to grow, this move gives us the space and environment we need to collaborate more effectively and support the increasing scale of our work. evolv1 is a great fit, not just because of its unique architecture and sustainable design, but because it reflects the kind of thoughtful, high-performing infrastructure we aim to deliver for our clients every day."

”The move also strengthens Avia NG’s presence in the Waterloo region, a hub for technology, research, and talent. “We’re excited to be part of this vibrant community,” adds Gene Cabral. “It’s the perfect setting for our next chapter of growth.”
