Our origins date back to about 2006 with the development of the AC Laboratory System (ACLS) for UNSW Sydney Electron Microscope Unit. Led by Dong Zheng and team, it allowed the highest profile nanotechnology research laboratories in Australia to streamline their operations, maintenance, and reporting, so they can focus on what was important, their cutting-edge research.

From 2008, ACLS was released beyond UNSW to many other universities around Australia and Internationally.

With an ever-expanding user base, UniLab was established in 2016 as the spin-out company into which ACLS would transition from UNSW.Dr Warren McKenzie, who heads HB11 Energy for national fusion technology development, was appointed as the board science and business advisor. Taking its first investment in 2018, development Moxy, collaboration tools designed by the elite collaborative scientific research community that can be used by anyone, anywhere.

All of UniLab’s products have been and will continue to evolve with the demands of both elite scientific research teams and the stringent security requirements of their laboratories.
