Our story

Leveraging the ecosystem

Gilbert draws strength by leveraging the strong ecosystem in the region. Our electrospray technology is based on years of research started at Delft University of Technology and continued at Gilbert.

To advance the technology from the lab to the patient, Gilbert has built an R&D team of seasoned professionals, and along with TU Delft has additionally partnered with Philips Engineering Solutions (PES), its neighbor on the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven and NHL Stenden University of Applied Sciences.
