TECH & GROWTH
Hudson Pacific Properties
In 2020, Blackstone Property Partners purchased a 49% stake in HPP’s Hollywood Media Portfolio, a 2.2 million square foot collection of studio facilities and Class A office buildings valued at $1.65 billion. Online content consumption has grown dramatically in recent years — a trend that has only accelerated during the pandemic. Our properties play a key role in supporting this shift to at-home entertainment.

LIFE SCIENCES
Alnylam
In April 2020, Blackstone Life Sciences and Blackstone Credit led a $2 billion strategic collaboration with Alnylam, a world-leading biotech company and a pioneer in the field of RNAi therapeutics. The investment will support Alnylam’s efforts to revolutionize care for patients suffering from high LDL cholesterol, a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease — the leading cause of mortality in the United States. Through this partnership, Blackstone is supporting Alnylam’s growth and helping the company bring therapies to patients in need.

SUSTAINABILITY
Altus Power America
In early 2020, Blackstone Credit led an $850 million recapitalization of Altus Power, a market-leading solar power company that provides clean electricity across the United States. Our partnership with Altus will enable the company to help meet growing demand for low-cost, renewable energy.
