SciSure has acquired Labfolder for an undisclosed amount, bringing together two entities focused on advancing digital solutions for scientific research. Labfolder is recognized for its intuitive and powerful electronic lab notebook (ELN) platform, which streamlines scientific data documentation and integrates key features found in Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS). This acquisition underscores SciSure's commitment to building a unified and powerful platform for digital laboratories.
Labfolder’s ELN and its associated Labregister for inventory management are designed to optimize daily scientific work by ensuring correct data documentation, collaboration, and compliance. The browser-based platform supports secure and efficient research data management, operating on a secure cloud foundation with data processed and stored in Germany, and is ISO 27001 certified. It also supports regulatory standards such as GLP and FDA 21 CFR Part 11. Labfolder serves over 50,000 registered users and 220 customers across more than 20 countries, spanning academia and various industry sectors including biotech, pharma, and agriculture.
The strategic rationale behind this acquisition is to enhance SciSure's offering by integrating Labfolder's established ELN and LIMS capabilities. This move is expected to create significant synergies, combining Labfolder's robust data documentation and management tools with SciSure's broader vision for digital laboratories. The unified platform aims to provide scientists with a more comprehensive and streamlined solution for organizing data, tracking changes, managing inventory, and collaborating with enhanced control, ultimately improving lab productivity and ensuring reliable, reproducible results.
Looking forward, the combined entity is positioned to deliver a more integrated and powerful digital environment, simplifying and securing critical laboratory operations for researchers globally. The goal is to further empower the scientific community with advanced tools that meet the evolving demands for compliance, efficiency, and data integrity in modern research.
