Our history
Founded in 2016 by a group of experienced engineers and bio-informaticians under the leadership of Claudio Alberti, our CTO, GenomSys is a Swiss company developing state-of-the-art technology and services for the efficient analysis and secure management of genomic information.
The company is a pioneer in the development of open standards for genomic data storage and processing – it led the process of standardization of ISO/IEC 23092 (MPEG-G) – and in the implementation of compliant software and tools for its effective application.
In October 2019, GenomSys secured a CHF9.3 million Series A funding to take the development of the company to the next stage.
In September 2020, Alessio Ascari, visionary entrepreneur and advisor in digital health, took the helm of the company as CEO to lead the new phase of innovation in true personalized genomic and personalized medicine. GenomSys is now enabling a new generation of secure, personal, and convenient solutions for managing and analyzing DNA, leveraging the benefits of MPEG-G, to simplify and democratize the usage of genomic information for diagnostics, pharmacogenomics, and above all personalized treatments.
GenomSys headquarters are in the Swiss Health Valley, at the center of a hub of technology and genomic innovation around the research centers of the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne and the Swiss Genome Center. The company recently opened an additional scientific center in Ticino, an emerging hub for innovation in biotechnology and digital developments in the south of Switzerland.
