Bayer Healthcare has made significant strides since establishing its U.S. headquarters in Whippany, New Jersey, in 2013. This move consolidated operations from multiple locations, providing a state-of-the-art campus that spans 94 acres and features 700,000 square feet of modern office space. The facility is designed to foster innovation and collaboration, housing approximately 2,400 employees and equipped with advanced technologies to support research and development in the pharmaceutical sector.
The choice of New Jersey for Bayer’s headquarters reflects the state’s long-standing reputation as a hub for the pharmaceutical industry, bolstered by a robust workforce and a supportive business environment. Bayer has since committed to cultivating local talent, partnering with universities like NJIT and Stevens Institute of Technology to enhance data science education and create pathways for students to engage in projects and internships with the company. This investment not only contributes to Bayer’s growth but also strengthens New Jersey’s position as a leader in life sciences and healthcare innovation.
