Innovation powerhouse

Janssen in Belgium has been focusing on research and development for more than 60 years. The campus in Belgium has been instrumental in the discovery and development of a new generation of tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, cancer, infectious diseases and neurological drugs. It was here in Beerse that the first FDA-approved tuberculosis drug in 40 years was discovered and developed.

From basic research to distribution

Our progress in research and development is remarkable. In addition to our historical research and development site in Beerse, our campus includes two pharmaceutical plants that play a central role in the worldwide Supply Chain. Our international distribution facilities in Courcelles and La Louvière play a pivotal role in ensuring that our medicines are sent quickly and safely to pharmacies and hospitals around the world, so that they are available to the patients who need them. And our Clinical Pharmacology Unit in Merksem contributes significantly to Belgium’s top position in clinical trials. From early research and development, through supply chain to patient access – our people are making an important contribution to the health of many.

Partnerships

We are not doing this alone, of course. We collaborate in a high-value network of partnerships with top universities, hospitals, research centers and companies. In 2015, we established the first JLABS in Europe to accommodate life science startups focused on innovations across the entire healthcare spectrum. Our goal is to attract the best and brightest talent in science and technology to our campus, and to work with European partners in healthcare to help start new, highly innovative companies. We offer support to our partners in various areas, such as: providing office space and laboratories, support in finding working capital and the use of the knowledge of our own experts.
