DEERFIELD, IL — Vantive, an offshoot of Baxter International, will invest $23 million and locate its new U.S. headquarters in Deerfield. According to Village officials and Gov. JB Pritzker's office, the new headquarters will enable the company to expand their office facilities and pharmacy operations, creating at least 50 new full-time jobs.

"Illinois is at the center of an innovation ecosystem that will deliver history-altering advancements to the world, and Vantive is a perfect example of that mission," Pritzker said last week. "As a leader in healthcare innovation, Vantive's commitment to Illinois will spur more interest and investment - and establish our state as the leader in the vital organ therapy sector. We're embarking on an ambitious journey to transform healthcare while bringing prosperity to our people in the process."=
