At Labrys, we work with field specialists, companies, governments, international regulators, and academia to uncover opportunities and business synergies. For every challenge, we offer a specific format - project, research partnerships or innovation sprint.
Here´s what we are up to:
Labrys Projects
Research track:
Bioethics and biolaw
Heading 5
Civil and Human Rights on the Internet
Research track:
Bioethics & Biolaw is a Labrys research initiative dedicated to examining the evolving intersections between biomedical innovation, ethical governance, and regulatory frameworks. The project investigates how emerging technologies, clinical practices, and data-driven health systems challenge traditional notions of patient autonomy, consent, dignity, and rights—while also creating new legal and institutional demands.
Positioned at the frontier of research ethics, clinical governance, and health-related public policy, Bioethics & Biolaw seeks to map the systemic implications of biomedical progress. This includes analyzing ethical review processes, liability structures, data protection regimes, cross-border research collaboration, and the legal architecture surrounding experimentation, therapeutics, digital health, and biotechnologies.
Through comparative analysis, case studies, and interdisciplinary methodologies, the project aims to support institutions in designing more robust, transparent, and human-centered frameworks for responsible research. Outputs include white papers, regulatory briefs, academic articles, and methodological guidance for ethics committees, researchers, healthcare organizations, and public agencies.
Ultimately, Bioethics & Biolaw advances Labrys’ mission to integrate ethical reasoning, evidence-based regulation, and systemic thinking—ensuring that scientific innovation aligns with societal values, safeguards patient rights, and strengthens the legitimacy of health governance in an era of rapid change.
Research track:
Competition, innovation, and financial inclusion
Heading 5
Fintech and Payment System
Research track:
In the last few years, the world has experienced a technology revolution in financial services. From web-banking to mobile banking, to machine-learning credit decisions, to open finance, and real-time payments. Understanding and leveraging the full potential of technology opens an avenue of oportunities to improve services, bring more people to the financial system, and streamline the real economy. At the same time, as such a regulated and complex market, the potential for policymakers to balance its forces towards the public interest is huge. As are the risks if the regulatory intervention is not systemically fine tuned. In this research project, we explore the systemic effects of regulatory interventions in the financial market to promote competition, innovation, and financial inclusion.
Research track:
Information Security Tools
Heading 5
Systems Design and Security
Research track:
The research project "Security Tools" aims to analyze and develop information security tools, as well as to disseminate knowledge about effective implementation strategies. The project will focus on identifying the best practices, tools, and techniques that individuals and organizations can use to secure their systems and data.
The research will involve analyzing existing security tools and frameworks to identify their strengths and weaknesses. The research team will collaborate with industry experts, security professionals, and academics to gather insights and feedback on the tools' effectiveness in real-world scenarios.
Research track:
Next generation of real-time payment systems
Heading 5
Fintech and Payment System
Research track:
The research project "The Next Generation of Real-Time Payment Systems" aims to explore and evaluate the potential advancements and improvements to real-time payment systems. The project will involve analyzing the current state of real-time payment systems, identifying areas for improvement, and proposing solutions or innovations that could be implemented in the next generation of systems. The research will consider various factors, such as security, scalability, efficiency, and user experience, to ensure that the proposed solutions are comprehensive and effective. The project will also involve collaboration with industry experts and stakeholders to ensure that the findings and recommendations are practical and applicable to real-world scenarios. Overall, the project aims to contribute to the development of more advanced and user-friendly real-time payment systems that can benefit individuals and businesses alike.
Research track:
Freedom of expression and information online
Heading 5
Civil and Human Rights on the Internet
Research track:
Web 2.0 began in a world of zero marginal cost for information distribution and where the emergence of aggregators enabled user-generated content to flourish in content platforms. From that moment on, freedom of expression and information gained a stream of new nuances with complexity and concrete micro and macro impacts on people's lives.
From identity and belonging to the bread and butter of the productive sector to the fate of democracies, how we deal with the right to free speech has never been so critical to everyday life. The Freedom of Expression and Information Online project aims to untangle the impacts of new technology on these basic fundamental rights and their repercussions on everything else: from business to politics and back to the future of information technology.
