Our take

Commercial DNA sequencing and advances in biometrics have led to an explosion in biological data, which is likely to prove critical in tackling the major problems facing the life sciences. The problem is, the data is so vast in quantity and diverse in type that analysing it and managing it can prove prohibitively expensive. This is where data orchestration and workflow platform Seqera Labs comes into its own.

Seqera is focused predominantly on facilitating big data analysis and management in the life sciences, and it has gotten impressive traction. Its Nextflow product, a distributed data analysis solution, has been used by over 10,000 organizations, including teams working on COVID sequencing and cancers.

The program can be used by precisely the people who understand the data without the need for external teams, and it has rapidly led to Nextflow becoming a widely-used industry standard. This means Seqera has been enthusiastically welcomed to take pole position and funded generously, all within a sector where urgent big-data projects are set only to proliferate. So it looks likely that Seqera will have a pivotal role in key life-sciences developments going forward.
