Trajan Scientific and Medical (Melbourne, Australia) has announced the acquisition of LEAP Technologies Inc. (Carrboro, North Carolina, USA). Both Trajan Scientific and LEAP Technologies expressed their excitement over the deal and highlighted the positive vision both companies hold towards improving not only lab efficiencies but also human wellbeing.
Stephen Tomisich, Chief Executive Officer of Trajan, said, “We are so pleased to welcome the LEAP team into the Trajan family. Trajan has a technology-rich development pipeline of disruptive sampling and sample preparation products speeding towards commercialization and LEAP provides the automation capability to allow adoption into laboratory workflows. We think it’s a partnership with huge potential!”
Trajan, a developer of medical devices as well as analytical systems, was founded in 2011 and quickly expanded into European, American, and Asian markets. LEAP Technologies was formed in 1989 to serve the automation needs of analytical laboratories and deliver solutions for separations scientists across multiple areas of research.
“The opportunity for LEAP to join Trajan will be a tremendous step forward to best apply new automation configurations for the fast evolving analytical chemistry laboratories worldwide. The synergies are multiple and can speed up the positive impact on human wellbeing by improving developments for laboratory automation and workflow,” stated Werner Martin, President of LEAP Technologies.
The deal offers opportunities for both companies as they seek to improve their product offerings and innovate new technologies for the analytical science and diagnostic markets.
