HELSINKI, Finland, October 2021. Finnish bioinformatics software company Euformatics, which develops and sells world-leading NGS interpretation and quality control tools, has announced a distributor partnership with All Eights covering the Malaysian market.

The agreement marks an important milestone for the Finland-based company as the announcement surpasses its goal of signing agreements with at least 1 new distributor partner per month in 2021. The agreement with Singapore-headquartered company All Eights covers the Malaysian division of its operations, and includes the full omnomics Suite of products from Euformatics including the best-in-class real-time sample quality control software, omnomicsQ, as well as the comprehensive variant interpretation and reporting tool, omnomicsNGS.

All Eights has a successful history going back to its founding in 1983 providing in-vitro clinical diagnostic and research tools to customers in Singapore and has since expanded its operations to include neighbouring Malaysia. Its mission to “provide clinical laboratories with high quality, innovative products to improve their current workflow and systems” positions it well with Euformatics drive to accelerate the transition to precision medicine, and its strong application specialist team enables the company to provide high quality training and support to its customers.

All Eights CEO Yi-Tee Lim

“We were looking for a software solution to enable our customers in Malaysia to improve their NGS testing capabilities”, said Yi-Tee Lim, Managing Director at All Eights. “NGS is growing at a strong rate all around the world and Malaysia is no exception. We are impressed with the user-friendliness of omnomicsNGS and its ability to reduce the time it takes to analyse a clinical sample really resonates with us and our mission. We believe that the tools from Euformatics will make a real positive impact on the way NGS is used in Malaysia and are exactly what our customers are looking for to expand their testing capabilities in the coming years”, he added.

Euformatics CEO Tommi Kaasalainen

Euformatics CEO, Tommi Kaasalainen, commented that “Having lived and studied in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia has a special place in my heart and that is why this agreement is of particular importance to me personally. We have made it our goal to bring our products particularly to Southeast Asia this year, and this agreement with All Eights gives us a very clear avenue for achieving that goal.  We have already been impressed with the level of knowledge and expertise in NGS at All Eights and believe that together we will have great success in the market. It is clear to us that countries like Malaysia are the key areas to focus on as NGS uptake continues at an unprecedented rate; with its growing population and need for quality healthcare, NGS is fast becoming an essential technology for clinical diagnostics.”

The agreement adds to the list of announcements from Euformatics since the beginning of 2021, as the company now has distribution partners in Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. CEO Tommi Kaasalainen has made international growth a key target for the company in the coming years and these agreements show the strong progress that has already been made.
