Labs & Services

CBV is proud to offer early-stage biotech companies access to fully equipped laboratory spaces with integrated office areas.
Our main sites include facilities located at Carleton University and the University of Ottawa Heart Institute. Navigate to each site below for an overview of the facilities and to see the over $2.5 million worth of equipment that CBV manages.

In addition, we also offer Flow Cytometry Services  at both locations. Our team supports projects from experimental design and antibody panel optimization through sample processing, acquisition, and data analysis. 

Additional Space Available

CBV has access to additional wet-lab space at institutions around Ottawa. This space is purposely acquired and fit-up on demand, to support the diverse technical needs of our companies (biologics, chemistry, medical device, etc). If you are interested in accessing one of these additional facilities, or any of the listed equipment, please contact us.
