Case Study: HI-Bio accelerates research operations with SmartLabs

HI-Bio grows from 5 to over 40 employees with SmartLabs

HI-Bio, a biotech startup focused on immune-mediated diseases, faced a challenge in quickly finding and building out its own lab space to begin critical research without delay. The company turned to the vendor SmartLabs to solve its need for a ready-to-use, fully operational laboratory environment.

SmartLabs provided HI-Bio with a fully serviced lab space, handling everything from facilities management to environmental health and safety. This solution allowed HI-Bio to immediately begin its research and grow its team from 5 to over 40 employees, all while avoiding the significant time and resource investment of building and managing its own lab. The efficiency gained by partnering with SmartLabs enabled HI-Bio to rapidly advance its R&D and successfully in-license two therapeutic candidates.
