Echo Labs
A research firm listed on Alma Street in downtown Palo Alto; call to confirm what it does today.
Acerca de
Alma Street runs alongside the Caltrain tracks through downtown Palo Alto, and the 200 block sits a short walk from the University Avenue station and from the Stanford campus across El Camino Real. Echo Labs is listed at 235 Alma Street with Kerry Nieto in operations, filed in the directory under commercial physical and biological research. The details here come from public business records; the company has not reviewed them, and the name is shared by several unrelated firms elsewhere, so read the rest with that in mind.
What the record says, and what it does not
The directory category points to a contract research business: a laboratory or engineering group that does testing, prototyping or experimental work for clients rather than selling a product of its own. A firm in this category in Palo Alto typically offers some combination of materials or device testing, biological assays, data analysis, and early-stage product development for startups that do not yet have their own lab space. One business database ties the Alma Street address to a different company name, which may mean the suite has changed hands. Nothing on this page should be taken as a description of what Echo Labs itself currently does; the category is the only clue.
Reaching a research firm
If you are looking for contract research, call first and ask plainly what the company works on, whether it has its own bench space or works at a client's site, and who its usual customers are. Ask for a written statement of work with milestones, who owns any intellectual property that results, what confidentiality terms apply, and whether the work will be done by employees or subcontractors. For laboratory testing, ask which methods and standards are used and what quality documentation comes with the results. If you are a job seeker or a supplier, the same first question applies: confirm the company is still at this address before you visit.
Downtown Palo Alto
The address is in Palo Alto's downtown core, in Santa Clara County at the edge of San Mateo County; Menlo Park is across San Francisquito Creek, and Stanford, Mountain View, Los Altos, East Palo Alto, Sunnyvale and Redwood City are all within a twenty-minute drive.
The number on record is 650-561-3446. Anyone who can speak for Echo Labs is invited to claim this page through the chamber and replace this cautious description with a real one.

Preguntas frecuentes
Típico de este tipo de negocioWhat does Echo Labs actually do?
The chamber could not establish this. The directory category is commercial physical and biological research, but no company website or profile could be tied to this address, and the name is shared by unrelated firms. Call and ask before assuming anything on this page applies.
How is contract research usually priced?
Most labs quote either a fixed fee for a defined statement of work or an hourly or daily rate for open-ended investigation, plus materials. Ask for milestones with deliverables so you can stop the work if early results are not promising.
Who owns the results of contract research?
Whatever the contract says. Before work begins, agree in writing who owns intellectual property, data and samples, and what confidentiality terms bind both sides. Ask whether the firm's employees or subcontractors will do the work.
