The Quiet Machine Behind One in Three American Adults
Quest Diagnostics is easy to mistake for a chain of blood-draw centers. Its real product is a national system that moves specimens, data and decisions through American healthcare at unusual scale.
Nawah Scientific
Nawah Scientific is an Egyptian deep-tech company that runs a 'cloud lab' - a network of advanced laboratories that researchers, universities and companies can access remotely by shipping in samples and receiving results online. Founded in Cairo in 2015 by Omar Shoukry Sakr, it consolidates expensive scientific equipment in central facilities so clients across life sciences, pharma, food and agriculture can run analytical testing without owning the instruments. After a decade it has tested more than a million samples for clients in 30+ countries and, in December 2025, closed a $23 million Series A to build a regional research center in Rwanda and double lab capacity in Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
