Quintiles Opens Regional HQ in China

Quintiles opened its Regional Headquarters in China, further expanding its capabilities to serve this large biopharmaceutical market. The company opened its first office in Shanghai 17 years ago. The 43,000 sq.-ft. headquarters in Shanghai now has approximately 300 employees and can accommodate 450.
 
“Today we celebrate not only Quintiles’ growth, but also Greater China’s emergence as a global player in biopharma R&D,” said Quintiles founder and executive chairman Dennis Gillings, CBE, Ph.D., at the opening ceremony at Shanghai’s Feng Lin Science Park. “Two decades ago we opened in Shanghai with 20 employees across Greater China – now we have more than 1,000. Today I’m more confident than ever that the vision shared by the leaders gathered here – of Shanghai and Greater China being centers of global innovation in biopharma R&D and healthcare – will be realized.”
