Eli Lilly and its representatives say work on this new facility is expected to begin early in 2026, and, in addition to the 500 jobs expected, it will generate just over 3,000 construction jobs.

When will it all be complete?

It’s like seeing a movie trailer for a film you really want to see, and at the end it says "coming in Summer 2027."

Completion of this high-tech facility is expected in the year 2032.
