Our take

Seer offers tools and solutions that provide unbiased, deep, rapid and large-scale proteomics in the field of biotechnology. More specifically, Seer's life sciences and health data platform helps detect life-threatening diseases before symptoms start to show. The company claims to be able to analyze protein composition in a comparable way to sequencing machines ‘reading’ strands of DNA.

Seer has grown rapidly: the company went public in 2020 after being founded in 2017, and enjoys strong financial backing that has helped it launch a varied range of proteomics products.

Seer faces competition from the likes of Nautilus and Illumina, a multibillion giant in the sequencing world, who have a sub-division dedicated to proteomics. However, Seer has featured on the Deloittes Fast500 2023 and won multiple awards for its innovative product, putting it in good stead to grow rapidly.
