PASADENA, Calif., June 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE: ARE), the first, longest-tenured, and pioneering owner, operator and developer of collaborative Megacampus™ ecosystems in AAA life science and advanced technology innovation cluster locations, today released its 2025 Corporate Responsibility Report, which details the company's consequentially integrated and multifaceted approach to advancing human health, enabling life-saving innovation, growing and strengthening ecosystems, improving patient outcomes and creating long-term value.
Since the company's founding in 1994 with $19 million in Series A Capital, it has grown into an investment-grade S&P 500® REIT and one of the most trusted brands in life science. At the core of Alexandria's distinctive and formidable business strategy is its unparalleled ability to establish and maintain longstanding trusted relationships with leading life science entities, which has earned the company recognition as "One of the World's Most Trustworthy Companies" by Newsweek. Alexandria's consequential support of the life science industry has direct impact on translating discoveries into life-changing therapies. Nearly half of all the novel therapies approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration since 2013 have been marketed by Alexandria tenants. The company's highly differentiated Megacampus ecosystems are intentionally designed to fuel the critical drivers for scientific innovation; they foster collaboration, enhance tenant well-being and strengthen the recruitment and retention of top talent. Together, these create the critical drivers to support the development of life-changing therapies and reinforce Alexandria's mission-critical corporate responsibility strategy. The 2025 Corporate Responsibility Report highlights the company's pivotal Megacampus platform with an exploration of the iconic Campus Point by Alexandria Megacampus™ in San Diego, which exemplifies the company's novel cluster concept. Home to entities at the forefront of innovation such as Eli Lilly, Leidos, University of California, San Diego, Novartis and Bristol Myers Squibb, Campus Point by Alexandria is a leading-edge, highly sustainable 100-acre Megacampus strategically located within three miles of key research and academic institutions, providing direct access to world-class scientific research, highly skilled talent, collaborative innovation and ecosystem enhancing amenities.
"Corporate responsibility at Alexandria is not a separate initiative; it is a strategic business imperative that is deeply integrated into how we operate, allocate capital and create long-term value," said Marc Binda, chief financial officer and treasurer of Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. "Our disciplined approach to corporate responsibility strengthens our competitive position, supports operational excellence and reinforces our ability to serve as the leading real estate partner to the life science industry while delivering long-term value. We are proud of the milestones we have achieved in 2025 and 2026 through our corporate responsibility platform and our mission-critical efforts to make a positive and lasting impact on society."
More than five decades after Genentech's pioneering work in recombinant DNA technology helped catalyze the biotechnology revolution, the need for innovation to address significant unmet medical need remains immense, with more than 90% of the 10,000 known diseases still lacking approved treatments. There continue to be extraordinary opportunities to translate scientific discovery into transformative therapies and cures, even while the life science industry navigates historic challenges within a shifting regulatory and geopolitical landscape amidst macroeconomic headwinds. Nevertheless, Alexandria continues its leadership at the vanguard of the life science ecosystem and maintains its steadfast commitment to growing and nurturing this mission-critical industry and advancing its highly consequential corporate responsibility and business strategy to advance human health and change the equation of human existence. The company's enduring business success is a testament to its collaborative growth-focused culture, egoless leadership and its best-in-class team's commitment to operational excellence.
