iVention

iVention is a Netherlands-based laboratory informatics company that develops and delivers the iLES Platform — a single, unified, 100% web-based solution that combines LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System), ELN (Electronic Laboratory Notebook), LES (Laboratory Execution System), and SDMS (Scientific Data Management Software). Designed to serve laboratories and research organizations across a wide range of industries, iLES enables more efficient workflows, regulatory compliance, and greater transparency throughout the lab.

The iLES platform is built to work seamlessly from benchtop to boardroom, supporting lab personnel in both R&D and QC environments while providing executives with real-time insights and validated data. The system is fully configurable, paperless, and designed to meet the demands of modern laboratory operations.
