The Only LIMS Vendor Hosting Annual Global Customer Education Conferences Prepares for APAC Training in Cairns this August

Successful Conclusion of the 2026 North American and European CECs

LabWare successfully concluded its regional Customer Education Conferences (CEC) in North America and Europe during the first half of this year. The North American conference took place in Palm Springs, California, gathering nearly 500 laboratory leaders and industry experts from 133 organizations. Following this, the European conference was held at the World Forum in The Hague, Netherlands. LabWare stands as the only LIMS vendor globally that consistently hosts these large-scale annual educational conferences worldwide, demonstrating a long-term investment in user training to ensure global customers stay ahead of technological advancements.

Customer Journeys: Innovation Across Industries

One of the most impactful elements of the conference was the wide range of customer stories shared—each demonstrating how LabWare solutions are being used to solve complex challenges and modernize laboratory operations.

Attendees heard from organizations such as:

• A multinational biopharmaceutical innovator advancing the discovery and manufacturing of life-changing medicines

• A premier life science tools and filtration provider relied upon in research and pharmaceutical manufacturing

• A federal regulatory agency dedicated to ensuring safe and healthful working conditions

• A pioneer in vaccine discovery and manufacturing producing vaccines for 10 CDC‑recommended infectious diseases

Across these sessions, customers showcased real-world applications of LabWare LIMS, ELN, LEM, and other platform capabilities. Their stories highlighted how LabWare supports everything from environmental monitoring and regulatory compliance to high-throughput manufacturing, scientific research, and digital transformation.

Innovation Zone: Where Technology Meets Community

The Innovation Zone at CEC Central was where energy never stopped. Attendees went hands-on with some of the most exciting complementary technologies in the industry, featuring everything from Mettler Toledo's precision lab weighing solutions and Nymi's cutting-edge identity authentication to Phizzle's data management innovations, Shimadzu's Lab Solutions, Simplica's specialized web offerings, and Thermo Fisher Scientific's Chromeleon chromatography platform. Every booth was a chance to discover new ways to extend and enhance LabWare environments.
