Vividion Therapeutics expands its global reach by establishing a new research and development (R&D) center and corporate headquarters in San Diego, California. This expansion aligns with the company’s strategic vision to unlock high-value, traditionally undruggable targets for cancer and immune disorders.
The new facility is a hub for enhancing Vividion’s R&D capabilities, particularly in chemoproteomics screening. Over half of the facility will house state-of-the-art research laboratories, providing space for ongoing and future clinical and preclinical programs. It will also support the company’s commitment to developing first-in-class medicines through advanced chemoproteomics and covalent chemistry.
Vividion’s CEO highlights the facility’s role in leading its strategic growth initiatives, enabling it to attract and retain top-tier experts in San Diego’s burgeoning biotech hub. The expansion is part of Bayer AG’s innovation strategy, supporting Bayer’s long-standing mission to develop groundbreaking medical solutions. Bayer’s global presence in life science hubs, including San Diego, San Francisco, and Boston, further strengthens its commitment to innovation.
The San Diego biotechnology cluster provides a perfect backdrop for Vividion’s growth. The city hosts numerous life science companies and research institutions, creating a collaborative and vibrant scientific community. This ecosystem aligns with Bayer’s strategic focus on scientific innovation and sustainable long-term growth.
