Workshop with our colleagues from Eyown technologies

Last Friday 26th we did a small Beonchip workshop on our products with EYOWN Technologies, a biotech company from Madrid, that specialized in the optimization of laboratory processes through instrumentation and Biocomputing tools.

Eyown has worked for more than 20 years automatizing lab processes, having a protocol that shows all the different stages needed to automatize techniques in an investigation laboratory. This protocol starts with the client study of the processes suitable for automatization and finishes with the maintenance and update of the developed systems.

During their visit, our validation team showed our Eyown colleagues how Be-Gradient and Be-Flow works and they could try it to see that it’s not difficult to introduce yourself in microfluidics. For them, it was also very interesting to our new project of adapting our technology to the sizes and designs of the pharma sector, where especially Contract Research Organizations (CROs) can find dispositives much more efficiently than the actual ones.
