Today, Shire is the leading global biotechnology company focused on serving people with rare diseases.

We trace our origins back to 1986, when a small team of entrepreneurs founded the company to seek out solutions to address a number of unmet medical needs.

By the mid-90s, we had embarked on the first of what would be a series of strategic acquisitions to expand into new areas, develop our clinical pipeline and bring new products to market. Since those early years, we have continued to grow dramatically through the completion of more than 20 combinations over the past two-plus decades.

Now, with medicines available in more than 100 countries, we are in a leading position to provide solutions globally that enable more patients and families around the world to live their lives to the fullest.
