Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Biopharmaceutical Campus Expansion
Campus connectivity
As a leading biotechnology company driven by a culture of scientific curiosity, Regeneron seeks to discover and develop life-transforming medicines for a wide range of serious conditions. To accommodate continued growth and further improve upon the traditional drug development process, Regeneron initiated a campus master plan, the Loop Road Expansion, and the creation of the Preclinical Manufacturing and Process Development (PMPD) Building.
Master Plan // After an initial strategic planning effort that examined the existing campus and planned growth, a master plan was established to help guide a multiphase expansion. The plan emphasizes connectivity among the therapeutic focus areas and scientific leaders based upon a model of convergence facilitated by the people collider concept, which acts as a means to connect people across a linear campus. Redistributing operations, establishing three geographic centers that are physically connected: a development cluster in the middle bookended by two discovery clusters. The resulting expansion includes 900,000 square feet of new laboratory and office space, along with additional buildings for parking, amenities, and infrastructure to support research and development.
PMPD Building // The new Preclinical Manufacturing and Process Development (PMPD) Building offers extensive, technically complex space for bench and pilot-scale operations. Designed around the concept of flow, the PMPD Building draws staff into the main entrance and through the facility to move from community and collaboration spaces to focused research areas.
Loop Road Expansion // The Loop Road Expansion increases Regeneron's laboratory and office space while also providing parking, amenities, and infrastructure, as well as a central utilities plant. The expansion welcomes visitors, offering event space and emphasizing a community-based approach to research. The multilevel main street spine energizes and organizes the campus by offering a variety of interaction and amenity spaces, including a café and fitness center, as well as full-service conference facilities. There is an additional future east expansion under consideration to add more science and technology space to the campus to address continued growth.
