Exact Sciences is a molecular diagnostics company with current products that focus on the early detection and prevention of colorectal cancer. Findorff, one of Madison’s oldest construction firms, wrapped up work this summer on Exact Science’s clinical laboratory space on the city’s southwest side. Work continues on other Exact Sciences buildings.

Panelists are Bob Hougard, science and technology lead of Findorff, Jeremy Hulsey, senior project manager of Exact Sciences and Eric Lawson, president and chief executive officer of Potter Lawson.

“With 2,300 employees today and openings for many more, Exact Sciences continues to grow through projects such as its 169,000-square-foot clinical laboratory and warehouse space,” said Tom Still, president of the Wisconsin Technology Council. “The lab will process samples from people who use the company’s Cologuard screening kit for colorectal cancer, which kills about 50,000 people a year – mostly in cases where the disease was not detected early enough.”

The luncheon is sponsored by Old National Bank and is in partnership with the Wisconsin Healthcare Business Forum.
