A Canadian pharmaceutical company is expanding into Rockville about a year after an executive with a long history in Maryland’s bioscience industry took the helm.
Aurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc. of Victoria, British Columbia, announced plans to open a new office in the city of Rockville on Tuesday, bringing about 100 employees to 30,000 square feet. The company could someday expand to employ as many as 500 people and occupy up to 120,000 square feet in Rockville during the next seven years, depending on its success in securing federal approvals for one of its drugs.
