PeptiSystems team has over 100 years of combined experience working in this field. Our CSO and former CEO, Lars Holmberg, was in charge of the innovation and development of the industry's first large-scale flowthrough column technology instruments for oligonucleotide synthesis in the 1980s and 1990s at Pharmacia, Amersham and later at GE Healthcare. Working together, the PeptiSystems team has taken flowthrough column technology to a new level and applied it also to work successfully for large-scale peptide synthesis for the first time in the industry.

The PeptiSystems co-founders worked together for 4 years at GE Healthcare to develop a peptide synthesizer based on flowthrough column technology. However, that project was cancelled due to reorganisation in the company. A year later, the team decided to start PeptiSystems to realize the innovation and impact on how both peptides and oligonucleotides are synthesized today.
