The top three market players in the global bioinformatics are Affymetrix Inc., Accelrys Inc., and CLC bio A/S. They together comprise approximately 34.6% of the overall global bioinformatics market in 2014. The expansion of biotechnology applications in fields of forensic research and disease diagnosis is drawing the attention of various healthcare organizations and professionals. According to the TMR report, biotechnology with technological and process advancements tends to create high-wage job opportunities in developing and developed countries due to which governments are focusing on the growth of the biotechnology industry.

For better and accurate results, it is imperative that the bioinformatics techniques are operated by skilled personnel. The need for heavy investment in installation and tools upgradation training tends to impede the growth of the industry. Due to this, there is a lack of skilled manpower in the bioinformatics sector who can adapt to sophisticated and high-end biotechnology process and techniques. The scarcity of skilled workers is hindering the growth process of large clinical laboratories as they struggle to automate their processes. On the other hand, the small and medium laboratories have amplified their efforts to abridge and boost their operations with the available resources. Research and development activities also demand highly skilled personnel, but the lack of it is obstructing the growth process making it difficult for organizations and market players to benefit from their research investments.
