About us

MISSION
Our mission is to leverage our outstanding technologies and know-how to support researchers and manufacturers in realizing higher success rates, greater yields and reduced cost of goods when producing proteins.
VISION
Our vision is to be the obvious choice for technologies and services for microbial applications within the life science industries.
Vectron Biosolutions was founded in 2008 as a result of more than 15 years of research in Professor Svein Valla's research group at the Department of Biotechnology at the University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim, Norway.
Professor Svein Valla was a world-leading expert on gene expression in bacteria and vector technology with more than 100 publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals. His research has resulted in a novel technology platform for production of recombinant proteins that can be used for higher protein production levels at lower costs and increased solubility. This innovative technology comprises Vectron's core technology.

To complement this expression vector technology, Vectron Biosolution acquired its microbial secretion technology in 2021. The secretion technology was developed by Professor Kelly Hughes at the University of Utah. Hughes is a world-leading scientist on microbial flagella with more than 100 publications on the topic.

Vectron's services and technologies are available to any company or research group that are looking for optimal microbial production strains for their proteins.

This could be a pharmaceutical company having issues with inclusion body formation while in pre-clinical development of their drug or an enzyme company looking for even higher titers of their new product. To us, any protein is a problem looking for a solution.

Board and Management

We are scientists. Vectron is made-up of a small team of scientists working on developing outstanding production strains for our customers, developing new expression technologies, and improving our existing technologies.

The majority of our employees hold a PhD and our combined experience with gene expression and protein production is more than 50 years. This makes us uniquely positioned to troubleshoot issues with sub-optimal protein production, and to deliver the bespoke scientific solutions that are needed.
