I personally don't know much about bioinformatics but what I do know about potential commercial applications has come from hearing speakers from Singularity University discuss what they are working on. You might be interested in looking into http://singularityu.org/ http://singularityu.org/ or their FutureMed conference http://futuremed2020.com/ http://futuremed2020.com/ Good luck!
