Company History

Founded in 2018 in Boulder, Colorado, Watchmaker Genomics has rapidly established itself as a specialist in the development of novel enzymes and reagent kits for genomic applications. The company's early focus areas included NGS library preparation and RNA analysis, and it has since expanded into other core areas such as methylated DNA sequencing and other high-performance assays. Backed by private investment, Watchmaker has grown from a spinner to a key supplier to major laboratories and diagnostic companies.
