Ascendis Pharma held a ribbon cutting to celebrate the opening of its new Princeton office with special guests

New Jersey, home to 3,200+ life sciences companies, continues to attract the industry innovators as they choose the region for their operations. Ascendis Pharma, a global biopharmaceutical company developing treatments for rare endocrine disorders, recently held a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of its new and expanded office in Princeton, NJ located at 212 Carnegie Center Boulevard.

The expansion represents a major commitment to the region. Ascendis Pharma’s office footprint has almost doubled, expanding to 22,040 square feet with the potential to grow further. Importantly, the company's local team is anticipated to grow to well over 100 employees, more than double its previous size, which will have a significant impact on local talent and the local economy.
