Origins

Benchling began over a decade ago in an academic lab at MIT, when we realized that the technology needed to support the complexity and pace of science wasn't available. So we created our own, with modern science and collaboration in mind.Today, Benchling serves the world’s biotech leaders and innovators, big and small. Our team wakes up every day focused on helping our global customers unlock the power of biotechnology faster, whether they're developing new medicines, crops, foods, or materials. The biotech revolution is happening today and Benchling powers the possibilities of tomorrow.
