RainDance choreographs a French subsidiary

By Mass High Tech Staff


RainDance Technologies Inc., a Lexington provider of droplet-based tools for life sciences research, reports it has formed a wholly owned subsidiary in France.

RainDance Technologies France SARL will be based in Strasbourg and begin operations in September 2008, according to the company. The subsidiary — which will be housed in leased space at Louis Pasteur University — is intended to support RainDance’s partnerships with European firms in the fields of drug discovery, genomics and molecular biology. Andrew Griffiths, a founder of RainDance, is director of a chemical biology lab at Louis Pasteur.

Privately held RainDance, which relocated its headquarters from Connecticut to Massachusetts in May, makes devices that conduct rapid experiments with droplets measured in one-trillionths of a liter. The firm, founded in 2004, says the technology will be initially used to support genomic sequencing.
