Amgen's boardroom, and everywhere it reaches

Amgen's directors and officers don't just run Amgen. They sit on the boards of 147 other public companies — and not only biotechs. One hop from Amgen's boardroom you reach Apple, Chevron, Exxon, Walmart, McDonald's, Mattel, 3M. This is the top 20 of those directors and the companies they bridge to. Gold nodes are the non-pharma reach — the cross-industry power grid a filing never shows you.

This is a graph query, not a document. No filing states "Amgen is interlocked with 147 companies" — the answer exists only in the resolved structure (mars.person_relationships_v2, board/officer edges to ticker'd companies, 2-hop). It's the kind of question an LLM over retrieval cannot answer at any number of turns. Top-20 bridge directors shown for legibility; the full web is larger.
