Knowledge is essential for generating value in a growing, pre-revenue startup. As a result, data collection and preservation are early and crucial priorities at Calyxia, a Paris-based chemistry startup building polymeric microcapsules for diverse uses.

Calyxia stemmed from research conducted by postdocs in the labs of ESPCI Paris and Harvard. Since its formation, the company has grown from a small group of researchers at an industrial site to a team of nearly 100 people. To support the company’s growing product roster, Calyxia recently relocated to new headquarters.
The company’s explosive growth necessitated shifting from paper-based data collection to an overarching digital system. Being able to collect, preserve, and access data easily was key to protecting intellectual property, optimizing resource allocation, and building customer trust.
Without a strong data management strategy, Calyxia was anxious about losing critical insights, having to repeat costly experiments, and stunting product efficacy, and about developing a robust intellectual property (IP) strategy.
To oversee the company’s digital transition and enable it to take full advantage of its know-how, Calyxia introduced Signals Notebook™ as its electronic laboratory notebook (ELN), lab information management system (LIMS), and equipment manager. By placing Signals Notebook at the forefront of its digital ecosystem, Calyxia revolutionized how it manages data, speeding up transitions between intellectual property generation and industrial-scale production.
Signals Notebook is a highly versatile solution. We can configure it to do whatever we want.
