Agilent opens 4th Centre for Excellence in India

Agilent Technologies Inc. has announced the opening of its Centre for Excellence (CoE) lab facility in Gujarat Technological University’s (GTU) premises in India. The facility will be available for faculty members of GTU, their students, and Agilent team to study and develop novel application workflows in the areas of analytical chemistry, biopharmaceuticals, and life science research. This new CoE instrumentation laboratory is intended as a shared educational and research space that will offer tremendous opportunities to advance scientific discovery and validation, while also serving as a valuable technology resource to academia. Agilent India also achieved a significant milestone in strengthening its footprints in India with the inauguration of its new office in the city of Ahmedabad. This new workspace encourages design thinking elements, brings vibrancy, and has an efficient layout to serve their customers even better. Due to the rapid speed of technological innovation, universities and other educational and research institutions may find it difficult to keep up with the latest technology and training requirements. The suite of Agilent instrumentation housed in the GTU facility – backed by Agilent application expertise – will advance long-term technical and scientific goals in the state of Gujarat and support economic and technological sustainability throughout the region.

Agilent in India has three other CoE facilities at Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Manesar.
