Overview

JLABS are a network of biotech incubators created and managed by Johnson & Johnson Innovations (JJI), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson. JJI supports development of some early-stage technologies by providing resources to smaller technology companies.

JLABs were previously called Janssen Labs,1 and this name is sometimes still used.

  • JLABS are intended to nurture the development of startups developing technologies within J&J’s areas of interest.2
