“BeiGene has experienced unprecedented global growth, and the addition of our facility at the Princeton West Innovation Campus adds manufacturing and clinical development capabilities that will further strengthen our differentiated strategy which leverages speed, efficiency and technology to advance quality medicines faster for patients,” said John V. Oyler, Co-Founder, Chairman and CEO of BeiGene. “We are proud to be a part of New Jersey’s biopharmaceutical community that is rich in research and development and manufacturing talent. We look forward to deepening our relationships with key regional research institutions as we advance our robust pipeline of next-generation hematology and solid tumor medicines and continue to emerge as a leading global oncology innovator.”

BeiGene’s $800 million investment is the culmination of a three-year project to expand the Company’s integrated manufacturing and research and development footprint in the U.S. BeiGene will create hundreds of skilled high-tech jobs at the site by the end of 2025. New Jersey is a global leader in biopharmaceutical manufacturing and R&D with nine of the top 10 R&D companies in the world having a presence in the state. New Jersey boasts one of the country’s leading biopharmaceutical manufacturing workforces, and its infrastructure and connectivity ensure access to major markets around the world.

“I am thrilled by BeiGene’s contribution to our state’s thriving biopharmaceutical sector,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “The opening of BeiGene’s flagship campus underscores our commitment to fostering innovation and creating high-tech jobs in the Garden State. We look forward to the positive impact BeiGene will have on our economy and the advancements they will bring to cancer treatment. This significant investment highlights New Jersey’s role as a global leader in pharmaceutical manufacturing, research and development. We are proud to support BeiGene’s mission to develop affordable and accessible treatments for cancer patients worldwide.”

The site features approximately 400,000 square feet of dedicated commercial-stage biologic pharmaceutical manufacturing capacity with space to expand over time, allowing flexibility as BeiGene’s pipeline continues to mature. The facility adds to BeiGene’s late-stage research and clinical development capabilities, which have enabled the Company’s fast rise to global oncology leadership. BeiGene has built one of the industry’s deepest and most compelling oncology pipelines, addressing 80 percent of the world’s cancers with innovative modalities such as targeted degraders and antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), in addition to monoclonal antibodies and traditional small molecules. The new facility builds on BeiGene’s existing capabilities, enabling the Company to produce at scale, thereby reducing costs, ensuring supply chain resiliency, avoiding global disruptions, protecting capacity and rapidly adapting to the latest innovative modalities.

“I am excited to welcome BeiGene to Hopewell Township. BeiGene’s new cutting-edge pharmaceutical facility represents a significant investment in our community’s future. The life-saving medicines made right here in Hopewell will not only enhance global cancer treatment, but will also create good-paying, high-tech jobs and strengthen our local economy,” said Hopewell Township Mayor Courtney Peters-Manning. “We look forward to the company’s continued success in Hopewell Township.”

BeiGene recognizes that human health and the health of the planet are intrinsically linked, and the Company is committed to reducing our environmental impact. For this reason, the Company has invested in sustainability measures both in the buildings and surrounding 42 acres, including a heating and cooling system that uses recycled wastewater from the onsite wastewater treatment plant for the cooling towers. The site also is solar-ready in line with our longer-term sustainability plan. More details on the facility, including multimedia assets, are available online at: https://www.beigene.com/hopewell.
