LOS ANGELES - Walt Disney Co is scrapping plans to build a nearly US$1 billion (S$1.3 billion) corporate campus in central Florida that would have housed 2,000 employees, according to an e-mail to employees on Thursday (May 18), against the backdrop of its ongoing legal battle with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Disney parks chief Josh D'Amaro said "changing business conditions".
Disney parks chief Josh D'Amaro said "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
