Project update: Lio x University Hospital Basel

Project Update: Lio x University Hospital Basel
A few months into our strategic collaboration with USB, and we’re excited to share some early results from the ongoing ramp-up phase:

  • Key Insights (as of March 2025):
  • 50 days in active operation
  • 226 km autonomously driven
  •  1,162 successful deliveries
  •  Current ROI 1.43 years
  • High reliability in daily lab tours of 99.43%

These early results highlight Lio’s potential to reduce workload, support lab staff, and bring efficiency into complex healthcare workflows—while still being in the initial implementation stage.

What’s next? We’re entering the next development phase with:
Autonomous loading and unloading of lab samples
Ongoing software optimizations and efficiency improvements
We’re proud to shape the future of lab automation with University Hospital Basel—and there’s much more to come.
Stay tuned!
