Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
A maker of generic and specialty medicines, Amneal Pharmaceuticals develops, manufactures and distributes hundreds of medications—from pills and injections to eye drops, creams and transdermal patches—that patients and pharmacies use every day. Founded in 2002 by brothers Chirag and Chintu Patel, the company grew from a bootstrapped family venture in New Jersey into one of the largest generic drugmakers in the United States. Fun fact: the name "Amneal" blends the founders' names, Amar and Neal.
