At Velsson, we help pharmaceutical and biotechnology laboratories automate complex workflows so scientists can move discoveries forward faster. Our automation systems combine robotics, precision liquid handling, and intelligent software to streamline laboratory operations, reduce manual effort, and improve experimental consistency.
From sample preparation to high-throughput screening, Velsson designs automation solutions that increase productivity while maintaining the accuracy and reproducibility modern laboratories require.
Our vendor-agnostic approach allows us to integrate the instruments and technologies laboratories already rely on while building scalable automation platforms for the future. Whether supporting assay development, compound management, cell-based workflows, or advanced research applications, Velsson delivers automation solutions designed around how scientists actually work.
The result is a laboratory environment where automation supports discovery, improves efficiency, and enables teams to focus on the science that matters most.
Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming drug discovery, yet one major challenge remains: AI can only learn from the data it receives.
In many pharmaceutical and biotechnology laboratories, the real limitation is not algorithms—it is the ability to generate large volumes of consistent, high-quality experimental data. Manual processes, fragmented instruments, and disconnected workflows slow the pace of discovery and limit the potential of AI-driven research.
This presentation from Founder and CEO James Chen, delivered at SLAS 2026, explores how layered laboratory automation enables flexible data generation across the research pipeline. By integrating liquid handling, analytical systems, incubation platforms, and modular automation, laboratories can create scalable workflows that support both traditional experimentation and modern AI models.
From small-scale automation to high-throughput platforms, layered automation allows research teams to generate structured biological data faster, more consistently, and at a scale that supports machine learning.
