Restructuring events
European Restructuring Monitor (ERM)
The restructuring events database contains factsheets with data on large-scale restructuring events reported in the principal national media and company websites in each EU Member State. This database was created in 2002.
US biotech company Amgen said it was building a European development centre at Uxbridge, Middlesex, as well as expanding its facility in Cambridge, creating 300 jobs. Amgen's expansion would almost double its research and development capacity in the UK. 'The decision confirms the UK as a major worldwide scientific hub for Amgen,' said Jeremy Haigh, the company's head of research and development in Europe. The UK initiative is part of a wider programme in Europe and the US, including a $1 billion investment in Ireland, which will create more than 1,000 jobs.
