Titian’s founder, Edmund Wilson, retains a meaningful ownership stake in the company and will remain closely involved in leading the business going forward.
“Titian has been on a solid growth trajectory of late,” Wilson said. “But our new partnership with Battery represents a key inflection point for the company that should allow us to scale even further, in part by tapping Battery’s industry expertise, network and market savvy. With Battery’s help, Titian can better capitalise on the exciting growth opportunities we see ahead in the sample management sector.”
