Genomics labs struggle to innovate in new ways in a rapidly changing marketplace.
For industry watchers who'd like a snapshot of Invitae's strategy for innovation amongst the turbulence, see an online article at the investor website Seeking Alpha by Los Angeles-based Ophir Gottlieb of Capital Market Laboratories. It's based on his interview with Invitae CEO Sean George. Find the essay online here (email registration may be required). Invitae lays out a complex, multi-dimensional strategic map involving health systems, big data, high test volume, high levels of interaction with patients, multiple routes of interaction and collaboration, etc., hence the heading, "massive disruption."
Gottlieb also posted Invitae's deck from JP Morgan, here, while including a few key screen shots within his essay.
