Biopharma company Regeneron to add 400 jobs at Limerick facility

Since 2014, Regeneron has invested over €850m in Ireland.

Biopharmaceutical company Regeneron is to add 400 jobs at its industrial operations facility in Limerick as the company continues work on the development of a Covid-19 treatment. The new roles will bring the number of workers based in the former Dell facility in Raheen to more than 1,400.

Last month, Regeneron signed a €380m contract with the US government to supply hundreds of thousands of treatment doses of its REGN-COV2 anti-viral cocktail to treat and prevent Covid-19. The drug is in late-stage clinical trials.
