DOVE CANYON, CA, US - May 2, 2018 - Quartzy and BioBuilt, the Los Angeles accelerator, collaborate to ensure the bioscience leaders of tomorrow have the lab supplies they need today
Quartzy, the only free online laboratory supply management and ordering platform, announced today its joint effort with LA-based BioBuilt to provide the accelerators companies with industry-leading lab management software and faster access to critical reagents and consumables.
BioBuilt is helping drive a bioscience revolution and Quartzy is pleased to be playing an important part in it, said Jayant Kulkarni, Quartzys founder and CEO. Now, all scientific endeavors supported by BioBuilt will be able to leverage Quartzys time-saving operational software as well as our extensive supply chain.
Through Quartzy, BioBuilts labs will be able to consolidate their purchasing workflows using the Quartzy Shop, the nations most comprehensive and diverse digital catalog of lab supplies containing more than two million products sourced from over 1,000 of the life science industrys leading suppliers.
