Defining the Future of Diagnostics

The field of medical diagnostics is undergoing a major transformation, fueled by advances in molecular biology, AI-driven data analysis, and next-generation engineering. Traditional testing methods are giving way to faster, more accurate, and highly personalized approaches- enabling earlier disease detection, better patient outcomes, and more efficient healthcare delivery.

Amid evolving trade dynamics, organizations have a strategic opportunity to strengthen global supply chains by enhancing resilience and pursuing geographic diversification—unlocking greater agility and long-term value, particularly in sectors like healthcare in India.

Welcome to this edition of our newsletter, where we explore how genomics is revolutionizing healthcare in emerging markets. As advancements in genomics reshape medicine globally, emerging nations stand on the cusp of a healthcare transformation. Precision medicine, early disease detection, and personalized treatments are becoming increasingly accessible. In this edition, we examine the potential, progress, and challenges of genomics adoption in these regions - and how they can leverage it to improve patient outcomes. Genomics is the study of an organism’s complete set of genes, revealing how DNA influences biological functions, inherited traits, and disease patterns. By analysing genetic sequences, researchers uncover insights into evolution, human health, and the mechanisms that drive the life itself. This knowledge is fuelling advancements in medicine and driving better treatment outcomes

India’s electric mobility sector is witnessing rapid growth, fueled by the dual imperatives of enhancing energy security and reducing carbon emissions. Adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is gaining momentum across both passenger and commercial segments. Key drivers include a lower total cost of ownership, supportive government policies, and the steady expansion of charging infrastructure.

India’s potato market, valued at ~US$ 43B, makes up 26% of the country’s agriculture sector, driven by high consumption and strong production.
