Improve Human Life by Helping Scientists Succeed
A single idea from the human mind can change the world. Nicoya was established in 2012 as an idea from the mind of nanotechnology graduate student, Ryan Denomme. While completing his Masters’ research at the University of Waterloo he encountered a recurring problem – researchers don’t have access to the cutting-edge technology needed to advance their discoveries. It became his goal to use nanotechnology to help reduce the cost and complexity commonly associated with scientific instruments, making them accessible to every scientist.
As CEO, Ryan now leads the team at Nicoya and continues to bring his vision to life. Currently Nicoya is made up of 100+ passionate and talented engineers, scientists, and designers who have extensive experience working at the forefront of nanotechnology, biochemistry, and optical sensors.
Meanwhile more than 525 Nicoya instruments are used globally in over 40 countries.
