To provide a data-driven approach to helping everybody lead their healthiest lives possible.
The genetic testing market is hugely promising, with an annual growth rate of over 10%, it’s expected to grow to a $21 billion industry by 2027. Color’s main offering is genetic testing, an increasingly popular preventative healthcare strategy which informs patients about inherited health risks, and puts them in contact with counselors to work on a response plan.
There are plenty of prominent actors in the marketplace, with 23andMe the most well known. However, Color stands out from its competitors by not working in the direct-to-consumer market, but by partnering up with employers, unions and governments to provide population-wide insights. The company’s client list is impressive, including the National Institutes of Health and the State of California, as well as Salesforce, Levis and Visa.
Thanks to a near $170 million series D funding round at the beginning of 2021, the company’s value hit “unicorn” status as it surpassed $1.5 billion. The company’s future growth will be interesting to watch, a new behavioral healthcare solution announced in October 2022 alongside the acquisition of mental health platform Mood Lifters. These developments are in line with Color's aim to build a wider infrastructure for a tech-based public health approach and indicate a push for a future IPO.
