I don't care. After all, he's asking because he doesn't know. I don't share his opinion and believe this is the best answer. He is free to accept it or reject it, but I try to give my best effort and this is it.

Idalia Martin
: Although the asker states that it's not about the physical location, the context sure does sound like it. So I agree with "sede" unless the asker has more information reassuring that it's not physical.

Cristina Talavera
: I also agree with sede. A "sede" or central headquarters is precisely that: a "central", common place, home-base...etc.

... the right “home” for XXX, ...bringing together all of our security businesses under one roof provides ...
