Consumer Packaged Goods and Food Industry R&D
Sharing R&D information across groups and site is a major challenge for many corporations. In addition many applications are deployed in isolation, leading to inefficiencies for the employees and a poor overview of intellectual property assets. BIOVIA ELNs offer the capabilities to streamline the documentation and protection of intellectual property, help scientists collaborate in global and networked activities from discovery to manufacturing, and make scientific data and observations associated with experimentation easier to search, find and use. They can be used as a standalone system spanning across multiple sites, or as a platform where other scientific applications can be integrated and readily available in an experiment centric way for the users.
While ELNs have been used within Pharma industry for several years, they are still relatively new to other industries, such as Consumer Packaged Goods or Food & Beverage. BIOVIA Notebook has proven very successful in such sectors, primarily due to the flexibility and low total cost of ownership. Chr Hansen, a pioneer in food R&D for the dairy industry will discuss how their ELN is used to bridge technology centers and R&D sites.
Introducing new IT systems that affect many users could be challenging, in particular for large organizations. This webinar will describe how BIOVIA Notebook has been deployed to 1000+ users in different areas of R&D. The impact also of only the out-of-the-box solution is significant, giving confidence to the organization to proceed with further digitalization of the R&D environment.
