Breda, 27 september 2000 - What an idea to combine the start
of the LabWing company with the launch of a portal site for the lab community!
This initiative has proven to be a success. From the start this http://www.lablines.com
site has since welcomed nearly 12000 visitors, scoring around 80.000 pageviews
in total.
LabLines contains more than a thousand links to websites that are of interest
and usefull to all those who are active in the world of lab testing business.
Lablines offers links to the sites of manufacturers and suppliers of instruments,
equipment, disposables, reagents, software etc. and to professional journals,
educational institutions, and , not forgetting, laboratories!
There already is an English version of the LabLines site, to be followed by
a French and German edition. Dedicated towards their respective lingual regions.
All international LabLines versions are expected to be up and running by june
2002 and will display the same and trusted 'touch & feel' like the Dutch
version does.
Luc Scholtis, algemeen directeur van LabWing B.V.: 'Unbelievable! This is beyond
any expectation. What started being just a marketing initiative now seems to
become a serious business activity. We get requests from numerous suppliers
to have their logo's and advertisements placed at the site. We have the impression
that the lab managers in particular use our portal as a start-up page to the
internet. That is why we have shortened the period of time to launch the English
version, that initially was planned for early 2002.
The companysite http://www.LabWing.com by the way is doing very good as well,
with around 24000 visitors from the start till now. We experience a special
interest in LABSOFTIME, the new software suite that will be build by LabWing
to offer E-commerce solutions to the European laboratory branche.
