J&J plans to create over 500 jobs at its new cell therapy plant, expanding capacity for personalized treatments in a competitive Pennsylvania life sciences market.
- Johnson & Johnson announced Wednesday it will build a next-generation cell therapy plant in Lower Gwynedd, Montgomery County, operated by Janssen Biotech and opening in 2031, creating more than 500 jobs.
- As part of its U.S. plan, Johnson & Johnson said this investment fits its $55 billion U.S. investment plan through early 2029 amid President Donald Trump's tariff threats.

- Gov. Josh Shapiro said the investment and aggressive offer convinced Johnson & Johnson to choose Spring House, with local leaders praising it as a major win that cements Pennsylvania's life-sciences role.
- Serving thousands of patients each year, the plant will shorten delivery times and expand capacity for cancer, immune‑mediated and neurological diseases, adding to Eli Lilly & Co.'s $3.5 billion Lehigh Valley plant.
