About the event
Open Lab Day – Analytica Edition
A Satellite Workshop during Analytica | Munich
Malvern Panalytical, Micromeritics, and SciAps unite in a free collaborative Open Lab Day, held as an official satellite workshop during Analytica, designed to showcase the power of integrated analytical solutions.
Taking place in Munich at our local offices on the first day of Analytica, this exclusive event offers a hands-on deep dive beyond the exhibition floor, connecting portable screening with advanced laboratory characterisation.
Join us for Open Lab Day – Analytica Edition, a unique opportunity to experience our instruments up close and discover how this powerful combination of technologies is redefining materials characterisation and driving deeper insights across industries.
Expect big ideas, advanced technologies, and a dynamic exchange of expertise, all in one focused, application-driven experience, just steps away from the world’s leading analytical trade fair.
You’ll enjoy a full day of innovation and discovery, featuring:
