The global genomics market size was valued at USD 32.65 billion in 2023 and is projected to witness a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.5% from 2024 to 2030. The growth of genomics market is attributed to factors such as growing demand for gene therapy, personalized medicine, drug discovery, increasing cancer incidence, and a significant increase in demand for consumer genomics in recent years. Moreover, increasing number of joint ventures and partnerships amongst market players is also expected to have a positive impact on the genomics market growth. For instance, in June 2022, Illumina, Inc., and Allegheny Health Network signed a collaboration for effective evaluation of the impact of in-house Comprehensive Genomic Profiling (CGP) to leverage patient care.

The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak had posed challenges to applications of genomics technology in terms of research and therapeutics. Nevertheless, some niche applications were of great use to mankind during the pandemic situation to facilitate immediate attention for designing effective diagnostics, effective therapeutics and steps to curb the spread of COVID-19.  For example, the viral genome mutational rate (~1-2 bases per month) was gauged for validity of PCR cycle was estimated to understand the efficacy of the re-purposed anti-viral treatments and thereby the vaccine development process was streamlined.

Many genomic surveillance programs were launched country wise to understand the dynamics of pandemic situation and to effective preventive measures. For instance, in December 2020, the Indian SARS-CoV-2 Genomics Consortium (INSACOG) was launched by the joint efforts of Department of Biotechnology (DBT), Ministry of Health, and ICMR with an aim to screen the genomic variations in the SARS-CoV-2 by sequencing technologies. Furthermore, country specific companies are providing consumer genomics services which is also expected to fuel the market size in coming years. One such company being Mapmygenome which is one of the pioneers in India offers DTC genomics services.

Application Insights

The functional genomics segment dominated the overall market with the largest revenue share of 32.1% in 2023. The dominance of the segment can be attributed to research studies aiming to understand a particular phenotypical expression of a given disease condition. Many gene therapies for cancers are designed on the basis of functional genomic technology. For instance, in June 2020, researchers at European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) at Heidelberg increased the scalability and precision metrics of functional genomics CRISPR/Cas9 gene-based screens through targeted single-cell RNA sequencing. Single-cell RNA sequencing gives deep insights into levels of gene expression in individual cells and can capably analyze CRISPR/Cas9 functional genomics screens.

Deliverables Insights

The product segment dominated the market in 2023. The products used in genomics are broadly segmented into two categories—instruments or systems that are required for the synthesis and sequencing of the nucleic acid sequences and consumables & reagents.

The increase in preference for personalized medicines and decline in costs of DNA sequencing owing to the launch of NGS technology resulted in the development of novel products or systems. The genomics market is gradually becoming more competitive with new product launches. For instance, in June 2022, PerkinElmer introduced an automated benchtop system for NGS, the research-use only BioQule NGS System to automate library preparation.

End-user Insights

The pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies segment led the market in 2023. This is attributed to the increasing demand for use of genomics in drug discovery. Moreover, the market is driven by increasing adoption of spatial genomics & transcriptomics technologies. Numerous trials are underway for novel drug discovery using underlying knowledge from genomics. For instance, in June 2022, Illumina Inc., declares that it will present seven of their abstracts regarding the key oncology research at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2022 in further to an event to discuss the transformational impact of comprehensive genomic profiling in precision medicine.
