What they say about BiotechTown
“I strongly recommend Open Lab services. All structure and equipment are of the highest quality and with calibrations and maintenance always up to date. Open Lab's technical team is highly qualified and always helps with whatever is needed. Without a doubt, Open Lab will continue to be my laboratory when I need it".
“The BiotechTown Business Development Program is transforming a dream into a company. For me, the main among the many benefits of the Program was the maturation of Kimera as a company. The startup had been around for more than six years, but there were still doubts about how to make the business work. In the Program, we evolved to the point of seeing Kimera as a company, as something tangible.”
“At first we thought that we did not adhere to the Business Development Program, because we are a life sciences company, but not a biotechnology company. But we were wrong. The acceleration team dove into our world to help us grow the business. We had a perception of our own company and today it is totally different. We climbed a few steps and reached a point where what was structured back there is no longer valid, it is obsolete. This clearly shows our evolution.”
“Our company's relationship with BiotechTown opened up new perspectives. The Open Innovation process naturally transported everyone involved to topics that inevitably await us in the future and anticipating this perception is the great merit of BiotechTown. There is no way to measure this service, it is an experience where everyone wins. BiotechTown's team is prepared, hungry for (more) knowledge and always able to listen carefully to each exposed demand.”
