    Our Mission

    More than 90 years ago, a young and bright industrialist named Gordon Battelle had a vision to unite the best scientific minds to benefit humanity.

    Today, Battelle’s mission—to translate scientific discovery and technology advances into societal benefits—is as relevant as ever. We are a $7 billion enterprise working to solve some of the world’s most difficult challenges.
