The presence of international, regional, and local vendors characterizes this market. The local and regional vendors mainly collaborate with the international vendors to gain revenue and geographical coverage. This helps international players to increase their footprints in the market, but local vendors are also finding it difficult to compete with them, especially on quality features due to patent restrictions. Due to the competitive environment, the analysts expect this market to intensify further with an increase in product extensions and an increase in mergers and acquisitions during the forecast period.
The top four players Illumina, Life Technologies, Agilent Technologies Corp and Roche Holding AG leads the industry with a combined market share of 41%. The remaining 59 percent share of the market is fragmented among other vendors.
To determine the potential of this market in the next 3-4 years, TechNavio analysts have conducted in-depth research on some of the challenges, that might act as impediment for the future growth of this market.
“One of the major challenges is the low adoption of genomic technology compared to other sequence analysis technologies, especially among large biotechnology companies. Researchers still have doubts over the advantages of genomics, mainly because of a few instances of failure witnessed during genomics research programs. Moreover, limited number of specialists in the R&D segment of DNA sequencing is affecting the growth of the Global DNA Sequencing Equipment and Services market”, states TechNavio’s senior analyst and co-author of this report.
