The growth of next generation sequencing market is attributed to the substantial decline in the prices of sequencing. For example, the cost of sequencing in 2006 was around US $ 10 billion, which eventually dropped down to US$ 5,000 billion in 2012. Various market players such as Roche and Illumina have introduced sequencing techniques which have reduced the cost associated with sequencing. However, there are risks associated with genetic data which prove to be a major restraint in the market for next generation sequencing. One of the prominent risk associated is targeted marketing of drugs to individuals and family groups. Genetic data is also sold by companies to outside parties. For instance, 23andMe sold access to its database to around 13 other party pharmaceutical firms. Such risks associated with genetic data is likely to hamper growth of the market over the coming years. Recent developments in technologies has enabled companies to produce sequencing in a single day at the cost of about $15 per sample. It results in effective delivery of target and whole genome data for thousands of samples at a reasonable cost.

The market for next generation sequencing consists of well-recognized organizations as well as emerging companies namely; PerkinElmer, Inc., Oxford Nanopore Technologies, Ltd., Beijing Genomics Institute, F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG, Eurofins Scientific, Agilent Technologies, Qiagen N.V., Thermo Fisher Scientific, Macrogen, Inc., and Illumina, Inc
