Our journey so far

2010
Start of the company and launching of former eLabProtocols

January 2010 marked the start of the company. With a proof-of-concept, Bio-ITech went live in September 2010 with the first platform, eLabProtocols, allowing users to easily design, show, and share biological protocols and SOPs.

2011
The first trials of former eLabInventory and further developments

In February 2011, the first trials of eLabInventory were initiated. In September 2011, the products were further adapted and optimized for the market. This resulted in further development of the eLabNext platform with the addition of eLabJournal, which combined the important functionalities of eLabProtocols and eLabInventory.

2012
Launch of former eLabJournal

In June 2012, eLabJournal was launched, Bio-ITech’s third product after eLabinventory and eLabProtocols.

2015
Strategic alliance with Eppendorf

In 2015, Eppendorf AG formed a strategic alliance with Bio-ITech. Eppendorf AG is a leading life science company that develops and sells instruments, consumables, and services for liquid, sample, and cell handling in laboratories worldwide.

2018
U.S. division is founded

The Bio-ITech U.S. Division was founded in January 2018. A new milestone has been reached. We are more accessible to our American customers and may provide better service to them.

2020
Launch of eLab Marketplace

In December 2020, eLab Marketplace was launched. eLab Marketplace provides a range of add-ons and integrations for customers to extend the functionality of their eLabNext software. Most tools are free to install.

2021
Bio-ITech becomes eLabNext

In April 2021, it came time for a rebrand. Since our products didn’t match well with our original company name (Bio-ITech), we decided to rename our company eLabNext. This way, our products are more closely connected to our brand.

2024
Launch of eLabNext Developer and the new Sample and Inventory System

In April 2024, we launched eLabNext Developer, the first-to-market developer hub to facilitate easy development and deployment of add-ons for more future-proof lab management. 

In June 2024, we launched the new eLabNext Inventory System, featuring an updated user interface, improved usability, and a variety of new features to better cater to our clients' needs.

2024
eLabNext, your go-to Digital Lab Platform

In September 2024, we realigned our brand by consolidating our individual products into the unified eLabNext platform.
