The Walt Disney Company is scrapping plans to build a nearly $1bn corporate campus in Florida that would have housed 2,000 employees amid its ongoing legal battle with Florida’s governor, Ron DeSantis.
Josh D’Amaro, the Disney parks chief, said in an email to employees on Thursday that “changing business conditions” prompted Disney to reconsider its 2021 plan to relocate employees, including its imagineers who design theme park rides, to a new campus in Lake Nona.
