Significant investment will enable world-class discovery research, innovation in data science and digital health and collaborations in the Bay Area

BRISBANE, Calif – Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) (the Company) today opened its San Francisco Bay Campus, a state-of-the-art Research & Development (R&D) facility in the Bay Area, one of the world’s most established global hubs for innovation and entrepreneurship. The nearly 200,000 square-foot facility will house up to 400 employees, more than doubling the R&D presence of Johnson & Johnson in the Bay Area. The campus bridges key scientific and technological capabilities by co-locating Janssen R&D, Johnson & Johnson Innovation and Johnson & Johnson Technology. It will further integrate the Company into the Bay Area innovation ecosystem to strengthen and increase collaborations with innovators to accelerate growth.

“Johnson & Johnson’s expanded presence in the Bay Area affirms our commitment to combining science and technology to deliver transformative healthcare solutions,” said Joaquin Duato, Chief Executive Officer, Johnson & Johnson. “On this campus, our talented teams will use their diverse experience and expertise to tackle society’s greatest health challenges to create a better future for patients.”

The R&D focus at the new site spans Janssen’s therapeutic areas and key functions, including emerging science and technologies for gene and RNA therapies, novel treatments and approaches for retinal and infectious diseases, and advanced data science, including artificial intelligence and machine learning. Co-locating expertise at the site will enable the expansion of the Company’s world-class discovery engine and industry-leading pipeline.

“Our new state-of-the-art science facility in the Bay Area will further strengthen our R&D capabilities and transform how we discover, develop and deliver innovative medicines faster and more efficiently. By integrating drug discovery, data science and digital health, we aim to accelerate the growth of our best-in-class portfolio and deliver better health outcomes for people worldwide,” said James Merson, Ph.D., Site Head, San Francisco Bay Campus and Global Therapeutic Area Head, Infectious Diseases, Janssen Research & Development, LLC.

The Johnson & Johnson Innovation Center in California has facilitated investments and collaborations to accelerate early-stage healthcare innovation with academic and industry partners in the Bay Area and greater California ecosystem since 2014. The San Francisco Bay Campus, along with the Company’s JLABS @ South San Francisco, will continue to enable the Company to build strong relationships with entrepreneurs, scientists and investors to support and invest in highly differentiated innovations that extend and improve lives everywhere. Additionally, given the convergence of healthcare and technology in the region, the Company will increase its focus on the Johnson & Johnson Technology organization to enhance its ability to create innovative digital solutions to advance human health.

Building on Johnson & Johnson’s long-standing commitment to use its expertise and resources to reduce the environmental footprint of its operations, the Bay Area hub is designed as a high-performance green campus, reinforcing the Company’s pledge to be responsible stewards in creating a healthy, more sustainable future. The aim is for the new site to receive Silver Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) certification, the most widely used green building rating system in the world.
