As you may be aware Sigma-Aldrich Corporation acquired the Epichem Group to expand its SAFC&reg; materials science offering.  In July the name for the legacy Epichem and legacy Sigma-Aldrich operations that have now been combined was launched as SAFC Hitech&trade;.  At that stage the legal status of all companies did not change as this was a marketing drive focussed on customer awareness. The integration of the legacy Epichem operation has now progressed to a stage where the company name required updating to fit in with the newly launched rebranding of the SAFC Hitech&trade; Division. <br /><br />From October 01, 2007 the name of the company Epichem Limited has changed to SAFC Hitech&trade; Limited.]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Kick-off meeting</title><dc:creator>webmaster@3d-demo.org</dc:creator><category>None</category><dc:date>2006-09-11T16:30:00+02:00</dc:date><link>http://www.3d-demo.org/news/files/Kick-off.html#unique-entry-id-3</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.3d-demo.org/news/files/Kick-off.html#unique-entry-id-3</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<span style="font:12px Tahoma; color:#666666;">The kick-off meeting took place on 9 and 10 November at the Parc Scientifique (PSE) of the Ecole Polytechnique F&eacute;d&eacute;rale de Lausanne</span> (<span style="font:12px Tahoma; color:#666666;">EPFL).</span>]]></content:encoded></item></channel>
