Organization
Regeneron scored High Risk because it has adopted identity-based hiring and philanthropic practices that prioritize demographic outcomes over merit, and because its governance and advocacy activities lean heavily into partisan and divisive social causes. These practices, spanning cancellations, discriminatory philanthropy, employment policy, and political engagement, suggest the company has allowed activism to shape its corporate decision-making rather than focusing on core business objectives.
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is an American biotechnology company headquartered in Westchester County, New York. The company was founded in 1988. Originally focused on neurotrophic factors and their regenerative capabilities, giving rise to its name, the company then branched out into the study of both cytokine and tyrosine kinase receptors, which gave rise to their first product, which is a VEGF-trap.
