New Series
Welcome to Behind the Scenes at Anivive
Hi, I'm Michelle Orrego, Director of Communications & Investor Relations. This is a brand new position here at Anivive designed to be a bridge for more dialog, be a point person for all investors, and deliver bite-size info on current events.
Think of this as my field journal — a candid, real-time look behind the curtain as I document the day-to-day life at Anivive. From lab visits and team introductions to pipeline updates and the small moments that don't make it into press releases.
Michelle, unscripted. Here's what's actually happening.

The Texas Lab — College Station, TX
I thought I'd kick off this adventure with our trip to the new lab in Texas last week.
The Texas Lab was purchased in 2025, and we're getting it up and running for full production mode. The facility is located in College Station, TX. It's situated near Texas A&M University which has around 80,000 students — it's definitely a college town. Their College of Agriculture & Life Sciences is considered the largest in the country.
Unfortunately, it was Spring Break when we went, so it was pretty quiet.

Why College Station?
Home to Texas A&M University and its renowned College of Agriculture & Life Sciences — the largest in the country — College Station gives us direct access to world-class research talent and infrastructure.

The Team on the Ground
We were greeted by the team members and partners. Both of them are former Zoetis employees who were there before we acquired it. They are instrumental in and out of the facility — in fact, they are a part of the building's infrastructure.
