History
Contur Software AB was founded in 1999 in Stockholm, Sweden, with initial focus on software development for companies within the retail, telecom and pharmaceutical industries. In 2002 Contur initiated collaboration with one of Europe’s major biotech companies Biovitrum, to develop an Enterprise Electronic Lab Notebook. The system was named ConturELN and was rolled-out successfully at Biovitrum in 2003.
In 2005 the company underwent a strategic shift in its business concept towards becoming a complete supplier of software for the biotechnology, pharmaceutical and chemical industries as well as academic institutions. Continuous product development of the core product ConturELN has secured its position in the top tier on the market.
Today, ConturELN has evolved to include specific functionality for different research groups yet at the same time kept the flexible architecture that is the basis for much of the success. Contur is a multinational company recognized as one of the leading players in the ELN market supporting customers worldwide.
