We are DiData

Founded by a team of visionary scientists and technology enthusiasts, Didata was born out of a passion for innovation and a deep understanding of the challenges laboratories face daily. At Didata, we collaborate with medical doctors and scientists, that’s what makes us the driving force behind the modernization and optimization of laboratory operations. Our commitment to empowering laboratories with cutting-edge technology has made us a trusted partner in the world of scientific research and data management.

At Didata, our mission is clear: We are committed to advancing the progress of science and research by equipping laboratories with the tools they need to excel. Our purpose is guided by the following principles:

• Empowering Scientific Progress
• Simplifying Laboratory Management
• Enhancing Quality and Compliance
• Fostering Collaboration
• Continuous Innovation

DiData's objective is to provide high-tech healthcare data management solutions regardless of the user’s IT background. We believe that a tailored tool in the right hands is key for research breakthroughs and would open the door to new opportunities. From the early stages of DiData, we collaborated with medical doctors and scientists to ensure that our environment provides a great user experience and cutting-edge IT solutions to tackle their challenges.

Research projects have significantly increased during the last decade, and so have their IT requirements. In parallel, digital technologies have shown tremendous improvements. However, researchers are still provided with software solutions based on old technologies which do not address new challenges nor offer a user-oriented experience. DiData’s two co-founders encountered this frustrating situation during their extensive experience in both industry and academia. After obtaining their master's degree in bioengineering from the EPFL, the co-founders' Riad Gacem and Anass Chiki took different directions: digital healthcare technologies and academic research. Nevertheless, during their long philosophic discussions to make a better world, one problem always kept intriguing; why is there such a knowledge gap between IT advances and researchers' solutions? Thus, they decided to create a research-driven solution and use cutting-edge technologies to address today's needs and tomorrow's challenges adequately.
