Sustainability Goals and Initiatives
editAlthough specific sustainability goals are not explicitly mentioned in the provided information, Labforward focuses on digital transformation and increasing efficiency in laboratories. By automating and optimizing laboratory processes, the company indirectly contributes to reducing resource consumption and improving working conditions. The integration of AI and IoT technologies also supports a more efficient use of resources and potentially reduces environmental impact in laboratory environments[2][3].
Current Developments
editLabforward recently announced a merger with LabTwin, made possible by the contribution of the LabTwin business by Sartorius, the founder and previous owner of LabTwin. This merger expands the possibilities of laboratory digitization and networking and strengthens Labforward's position in the market. Sartorius will thus become a shareholder of Labforward, and the merged company will be led by Joerg Hoffmann as CEO[2].
With this consolidation and support from strategic partners such as Sartorius, TECAN, and CARPUS, Labforward positions itself as a leading provider of digital laboratory solutions that support researchers in academic, industrial, and pharmaceutical laboratories worldwide. Labforward's solutions are used internationally by more than 50,000 researchers and contribute to the ongoing digital transformation in the R&D sector[2][3].
