Award for ELDICO's dedicated electron diffractometer

What does it mean to challenge the existing bottlenecks in crystallography and to provide a solution that harmonizes innovation and the practical landscape of research? This was the focal point of the interview Pharma Tech Outlook conducted with our CEO, Eric Hovestreydt,  on the occasion of our company being recognised as one of the most innovative suppliers of analytical instrumentation for applications in the pharmaceutical industry. The drug discovery process is one example: a dedicated electron diffractometer would help determine the exact spatial structures of chemical compounds for approving and developing active drug ingredients.

About Eldico

ELDICO Scientific AG (The Electron Diffraction Company) is a Swiss hardware company founded in 2019 and based in the Switzerland Innovation Park Innovaare at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), a globally leading Swiss research institute for natural and engineering sciences. ELDICO develops, manufactures and sells novel instruments for electron diffraction in crystallography, enabling nanocrystalline solid state analysis in the sub-micrometer range. Specific instruments are not yet available on the market today. ELDICO will be launching the first instrument specifically designed for nano-crystallographic investigations. The proof of concept was achieved in 2018 (ETH Zurich, C-CINA Basel) as part of a Nano-Argovia project of the Swiss Nanoscience Institute (SNI) on scientifically and industrially relevant samples. It was published in 2018 and awarded as a Top 5 "Breakthrough of the Year 2018" by leading scientific journal SCIENCE. In 2020, ELDICO took second place in the competition for the prestigious pioneer prize awarded by Technopark Zurich and the Zürcher Kantonalbank (ZKB). www.eldico-scientific.com
