The atmosphere at the world’s leading trade fair for laboratory technology, analysis and biotechnology was exceptionally good, providing WILD and PHOTONIC with a unique platform for innovation, dialogue, and new business opportunities.

New positive momentum is needed, especially in economically challenging times – which is exactly what analytica 2024 provided for the entire industry. The spectrum of innovations, thought-provoking ideas and “docking stations” for new partnerships ranged from advanced analysis technologies to sustainable solutions for laboratory work. In particular, integrating AI and digital platforms into analytical processes and developing environmentally friendly analysis methods were among the key topics.

Also WILD and PHOTONIC took away a wide range of new ideas, contacts, and motivation from analytica 2024. “The numerous discussions with existing and potential customers at our well-attended trade fair booth showed that the industry is hungry for innovation”, says Franz Aigner, Head of Business Development at the WILD Group, looking positively to the future.

The demand for laboratory and process analytics automation solutions was particularly high at the trade fair booth. Another exciting aspect for the visitors was: WILD fulfils the extremely complex optical requirements to carry out ever more precise measurements of ever smaller structures.

“Our l summary is extremely positive”, emphasize both, Wolfgang Warum, CTO of the WILD Group, and Stefan Werkl, Head of Business Unit Optical Technologies. “analytica 2024 was a great opportunity for us to strengthen our presence in the industry, making valuable contacts and present our innovative optical solutions to a broad audience.”
