In 'Blade Runner', what is the name of the corporation that creates replicants?

In 'Blade Runner', the corporation that creates replicants is the Tyrell Corporation. Founded and led by Dr. Eldon Tyrell, it manufactures bioengineered humanoids for labor, combat, and service in the off-world colonies.

The company’s slogan, “More human than human,” captures its ambition: replicants are designed to exceed ordinary humans in strength, agility, and sometimes intelligence. The Nexus-6 models featured in the 1982 film are physically superior but have artificially limited lifespans, a safeguard intended to prevent them from developing independent lives beyond corporate control.

The Tyrell Corporation is central to the film’s moral conflict. Replicants such as Roy Batty and Rachael are not mechanical robots; they are living biological creations whose memories and identities have been manipulated. That distinction drives Deckard’s investigation and the film’s questions about humanity. Cyberdyne Systems belongs to The Terminator, while Weyland-Yutani belongs to Alien. In Blade Runner 2049, the bankrupt Tyrell Corporation has been replaced by the Wallace Corporation.
