Eli Lil­ly has a present for Pres­i­dent Trump. At a time Trump has been pound­ing on big com­pa­nies in gen­er­al and Big Phar­ma in spe­cif­ic for more US jobs and de­vel­op­ment, Eli Lil­ly is launch­ing an $850 mil­lion ren­o­va­tion plan for its US fa­cil­i­ties.

The In­di­anapo­lis-based Lil­ly un­veiled a blue­print to in­vest in its re­search labs, man­u­fac­tur­ing ops and its head­quar­ters in In­di­ana.

“Our fu­ture at Lil­ly is bright, as we’re on a path to launch 20 new prod­ucts in a 10-year time frame,” Lil­ly CEO Dave Ricks said. “As we have for our en­tire 140-year his­to­ry, we con­tin­ue to see In­di­ana and the Unit­ed States as at­trac­tive places to re­search and make the med­i­cines that we sell around the world.”
