NGS applications are still at a nascent stage in South Africa. However, key local players, including service provider companies such as Inqaba Biotech, provide sequencing platform services for genome sequencing, exome sequencing, and other NGS applications.

There are bioinformatics and genetic sequencing institutions, such as The South African National Bioinformatics Institute (SANBI) within the University of Western Cape and The Next Generation Sequencing Facility (NGSF). Such institutions also have laboratories with NGS capabilities for research and academics.

The presence of several service providers, CROs, and distribution networks of international players offering sequencing platforms & services for genome sequencing, exome sequencing, and others drives regional growth. In October 2023, the potential release of hazardous new pathogens amid global warming concerns underscores the importance of metagenomic early warning tools for pandemic prevention.
