Why it matters
The pharmaceuticals context.
Post-pandemic supply-chain pressure and bipartisan concern about US reliance on overseas active-pharmaceutical-ingredient (API) production drove an unprecedented wave of domestic pharmaceutical capacity announcements beginning in 2023. Eli Lilly, Novo Nordisk, and Johnson & Johnson lead capacity commitments that exceed any peer's investment in the prior two decades, much of it tied to GLP-1, oncology, and biologics demand.
