Laboratories—whether focused on research and development or on the creation of products and services—are the backbone of industry. The former turn money into knowledge, while the latter turn knowledge back into money. Nevertheless, the potential of laboratories is not yet being fully realized.
Technological, organizational, and cultural change remains a challenge in many industries. The transformation of the lab and those who use it must happen now!
Future Labs LIVE is important and timely. Over the course of two days, Future Labs offers comprehensive and interactive coverage of the most important topics and technologies.
The event will cover the following topics:
- Automated, Integrated, and Interoperable Discovery
- Digital Transformation
- Connectivity and Collaboration
- Data Management, Standards, and Analytics
- Sustainability
- Technological Change in the Laboratory
- Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning
- Laboratory Operations and Efficiency
- Smart Laboratory Equipment
- Training, Development, and Talent
