THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
Battelle will invest more than $100 million and add about 200 jobs in Columbus, Dublin and West Jefferson, the nonprofit said today.
The research institute will announce the plans Wednesday to renovate, expand and build new office, laboratory and manufacturing facilities, spokeswoman Katy Delaney said.
Despite the downturn in the economy, Battelle's business has grown, particularly its work for national defense and homeland security.
Local leaders said they are pleased to hear of the plans and many will attend a Battelle press conference tomorrow morning.
More details will be provided then, Delaney said.
