Access Louisville

This week on the Access Louisville podcast we discuss the news that Apellis Pharmaceuticals is leaving town. This was a promising pharmaceuticals company that’s been growing here for the last decade or so. At the beginning of 2020 it moved its operations to Boston — another hit to Louisville’s public company scene. Reporter Chris Larson tells us about the move and the recent history of local public companies — at least, those traded on the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ — disappearing in mergers or other moves.We also discuss a new flavor of Girl Scout cookies, which are made here in Louisville. And Reporter Haley Cawthon tells us about a recent acquisition for Yum Brands Inc.Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First. Digital Editor David A.
