We’re thrilled to announce the opening of the new Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee Global Innovation Center in Pleasanton, CA! The new Innovation Center opened April 20 with a special VIP-only ribbon-cutting ceremony led by Shaklee Chairman and CEO Roger Barnett, Chief Innovation Officer Emanuel Fakoukakis, and Nobel Prize Laureate and Shaklee Corporation Scientific Adviser Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn. Also in attendance were the Mayor of Pleasanton Jerry Thorne, Dr. Bruce Daggy, Dr. Jamie McManus and our amazing team of Shaklee scientists, along with special guests from the Shaklee Field and Home Office. The ceremony featured an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the facility, and an opportunity to converse with the Shaklee leadership team and Dr. Blackburn.
Coinciding with the centennial of Dr. Shaklee’s invention of one of the first multivitamins, the Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee Global Innovation Center will be a recognized source of technological advances in the field of nutritional science for years to come.
