Pablo Legorreta is the Founder and CEO of Royalty Pharma. Formed in 1996, Royalty Pharma is the industry leader in acquiring revenue-producing intellectual property, with over $12 billion in assets.

Royalty Pharma is a rapidly growing biopharmaceutical company with revenue and EBITDA in 2014 of $1.97 billion and $1.94 billion, respectively.
