Labster’s mission is to make science accessible for every student through immersive experiences that bring science to life. We enhance student success both inside and outside of the classroom by building best-in-class simulations designed by real scientists to help teachers educate, accelerate, and inspire.
Labster is evidence based and focused on student outcomes. Everything we do is ultimately about using the power of immersive learning to provide students with the learning advantage they need to succeed.
Co-founded by Michael Bodekaer Jensen and Mads Tvillinggaard Bonde, Labster emerged from a shared passion for emerging technologies, gaming, and a commitment to revolutionize science education.
As a Ph.D. student leading the Biotechnology lab at the Technical University of Denmark, Mads discovered a common challenge: students struggling to stay engaged and prepared for lab work. Meanwhile, Michael, a self-taught geek with a love for gaming and a background in Learning Sciences, faced similar issues while teaching. Pausing his Ph.D. journey due to Labster's rapid growth, Michael realized the need for a transformative approach to teaching science.
Together, they envisioned a solution that combined engaging storylines, meaningful missions, and project-based learning to enhance the learning experience. Inspired by flight simulator training, they asked, "Why not apply these benefits to teaching science?"
Today, Labster is used by leading universities, colleges, and secondary schools around the world.
