Refeyn, the company behind pioneering mass photometry technologies, has officially opened its new 10,000 sq. ft. US Headquarters and Customer Interaction Center in Waltham’s Biotech Hub in Greater Boston, Massachusetts.

Refeyn CEO Gerry Mackay – along with two members of the sales team and one of the company’s co-founders, Prof. Philipp Kukura – helped to cut the ribbon at the opening event. Philipp Kukura led the research team that invented mass photometry, a unique light-based bioanalytical tool for rapid, single-particle analysis.



The ceremony was attended by senior representatives from neighboring biotech companies in the Boston area, as well as Refeyn customers and employees. The grand opening is a significant milestone in the rapid growth of Refeyn since it was spun out of Oxford University just six years ago.
