He is a visionary strategist who understands the transformational potential of advanced technologies and translates them into actionable business initiatives. An inspired leader, Mikael is committed to accelerating the use of new tools such as analytics and AI to address urgent global problems. We are thrilled to welcome him to LabVantage and excited at the prospect of what we can accomplish together.”

“LabVantage brings the Fourth Industrial Revolution−characterized as a range of new technologies that are fusing the physical, digital and biological worlds and impacting all disciplines, economies and industries−to the lab, and I am honored to take the helm,” said Mr. Hagstroem. “LabVantage is on the forefront of innovation, incorporating advanced technologies in easy-to-use solutions that are making the digital transformation of the laboratory a reality. The company has tremendous opportunities working at the intersection of the biological and digital revolutions, allowing us to help customers solve ever more complex problems and achieve disruptive growth.
