Overview
- Construction is slated to begin in the third quarter of 2025 at the Thousand Oaks campus on a state-of-the-art science and innovation facility.
- The center is an R&D hub, not a manufacturing plant, designed to bring together scientists, engineers and researchers with advanced automation and digital tools.
- The project will replace the unused Building 14, with the new facility designated as Building 50 on Amgen’s headquarters campus.
- Amgen says the build will create hundreds of U.S. jobs, demolition will be performed by union labor, and a general contractor has not yet been selected.
- The investment extends nearly $5 billion in U.S. capital spending since 2017 and follows a $900 million Ohio expansion and a $1 billion Holly Springs, N.C., plant, reflecting political and regulatory tailwinds for domestic capacity.
