About Delaware

Delaware's real corporate landscape here starts with a single serious anchor: AstraZeneca's Wilmington operation, sitting on ground with a much longer pharmaceutical and chemical research history than headline notices show. A few miles away sits the DuPont Experimental Station, opened in 1903 and the actual birthplace of nylon, Teflon, and Kevlar -- one of the most consequential private industrial labs in American history, though it operates today as a research site rather than a standalone company. Delaware's reputation as a corporate-law and holding-company hub (most US public companies are incorporated here) doesn't translate into a large count of companies that actually operate and employ people in-state -- what's documented here reflects that gap honestly rather than papering over it with holding-company registrations.
