Ho Hum Hiring Headline (050407)
The economy is doing so well that even late-to-the-party Ohio is getting in on the act:
Drug maker Amylin Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Gov. Ted Strickland tonight confirmed plans for 500 additional jobs here and for a $400 million investment to produce a new long-acting drug to treat Type 2 diabetes.
The project is an expansion of San Diego-based Amylin’s $150 million investment announced in 2005 to hire 150 to produce the new long-acting release exenatide, now in clinical trials, and expected to be ready for commercial release in 2008.
