About BRAVE Analytics

BRAVE Analytics’ technologies for particle analysis provide a radically new approach to solving particle challenges. Our mission: Advancing human well-being and igniting curiosity by providing deeper insights into particle processes to drive innovation and ensure a healthier, safer world.

With BRAVE Analytics‘ PAT and lab measuring devices you can:

• Detect contamination and large particles to safeguard your product quality
• Continuously monitor particle size distribution to keep your production running smoothly
• Directly observe time-critical processes so you can intervene to adjust or stop them without delay
• Get previously unseen insights into particle processes for groundbreaking research and product innovations

During research at the Medical University of Graz, Christian Hill, now CEO and CTO of BRAVE Analytics, invented a groundbreaking method for continuously determining the size of particles, in-flow and with single-particle sensitivity. In the following years, Christian and a small team of colleagues worked on this new method of particle characterization which became known and patented as the OptoFluidic Force principle – OF2i® for short.

Since then, the core team of 14 people has been working on further modules: for large particle detection, small particle monitoring and for the hyphenation with existing techniques such as SEC and ICP-ToF-MS.

BRAVE Analytics has won the Innovation in Styria Award 2025 and has been recently nominated for the Econovius Prize.

As well as the patent for the OF2i® principle, we also have a patent on our Raman analysis module.

BRAVE Analytics is located in Graz, Austria and is currently setting up a network of distribution partners and representatives throughout the world.

Projects

BRAVE Analytics started out as a supplier for groundbreaking measuring technology for the particle characterization of (bio)pharmaceutical and products and in medical research with a special focus on the detection and identification of large particles, nanopollutants and contaminants.

In conversations with producers of semiconductors we have begun feasibility studies on particle and contaminant detection in slurries and other liquids used in the manufacturing process.

As a new member of the SILICON ALPS Cluster we are looking forward to fruitful exchange and projects.

Collaboration with SILICON ALPS

We look forward to increased market exposure and strategic networking opportunities, like being a part of the EBSCON 2025.
