Case Study: Agenus, Inc achieves unified global informatics and accelerated R&D timelines with Benchling

Agenus Building a Global Informatics Infrastructure

Agenus is a global biopharmaceutical company with multiple immunotherapy and vaccine pipeline programs and scientific staff spread across four discovery, screening, and characterization facilities worldwide. Without unified systems, scientists struggled to find and share information, the globally distributed R&D team faced collaboration barriers, and the complexity of workflows made tracking samples and experiments difficult.

Benchling replaced Agenus’s multiple informatics systems with a single end-to-end platform to track experiments, results, and samples, making institutional knowledge accessible across international sites and streamlining data transfer and sample tracking. By mining historical experiments to identify success factors and predict synthesis difficulty, Agenus now accelerates timelines, answers any question about any sample across sites, and learns more from every experiment.
