What started with a bar meet up and a bold idea to change medicine became the foundation of an entire industry. 50 years ago today, our company was founded by Herb Boyer and Bob Swanson, marking the start of the biotechnology industry as we know it. Today, that founding moment is recognized as Biotech Day in California. We’re celebrating by reflecting on the legacy that started here and the impact biotech continues to have for patients around the world. Here’s to the next era of breakthroughs! 🎉🧬 #TheOriginalBiotech
