About this event
Join us on Wednesday, October 16 at 3:00 p.m. for a tour of United Therapeutics’ downtown Silver Spring campus, the Unisphere – one of the world’s largest site net zero energy buildings – and get a rare glimpse into their lung assessment facility. The tour ends, weather permitting, with refreshments on the roof of the Unisphere. Don’t forget your walking shoes as we will be covering a lot of ground. ADA accessible.
Registration is a must as participation is limited.
United Therapeutics Corporation (UT), a biotechnology company headquartered in Silver Spring, was founded in 1996 by parents determined to save the life of their child and others who had been diagnosed with a rare, deadly disease called pulmonary hypertension. In 2021, UT became the first publicly traded biotechnology company to become a public benefit corporation (PBC), aligning its legal form with its founding inspiration. Its public benefit purpose addresses patient needs today and cures in the future: to provide a brighter future for patients through the development of novel pharmaceutical therapies and technologies that expand the availability of transplantable organs. UT looks forward to growing in downtown Silver Spring. https://www.unither.com/home
