Meta Platforms, one of the world's largest technology companies by market cap, is headquartered in Menlo Park, California.
The company moved into its Menlo Park campus after acquiring the former Sun Microsystems site in 2011. Meta's headquarters complex is widely known as the company's main campus and has been expanded substantially over time.
Meta was founded as Facebook in 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes. The company changed its corporate name to Meta Platforms in 2021 to emphasize its interest in building the metaverse.
Menlo Park is in California's San Francisco Bay Area, but it is not the same city as nearby Palo Alto, Mountain View, or San Jose. Those cities are also closely associated with major technology companies, which makes them common mix-ups.
