Market dynamics

5 factors across 3 forces
01

Growth of the Biotechnology and Pharmaceutical Industries to Drive the Market

The demand for biopharmaceuticals is increasing globally. Biotech companies are focused on expanding their production capacities and capabilities to meet the increasing demand and develop new biopharmaceuticals. For instance, in April 2022, FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies (U.S.) expanded its BioProcess Innovation Center in Research Triangle Park (U.S.), with plans to equip the facility with analytical instrumentation, high-throughput bioprocessing equipment, and automation technologies.

Bioinformatics has many applications in biotechnology, including automatic genome sequencing, prediction of gene function and protein structure vaccine designing, phylogeny, gene identification, understanding gene and genome complexity, and protein structure, functionality, and folding. Similarly, pharmaceutical companies use bioinformatics throughout the drug discovery and development process. Identifying the drug target is a crucial step in the creation of new drugs. Moreover, bioinformatics tools are used for analyzing the data generated from preclinical and clinical trials as the amount of data generated is huge, and the integration of this generated biological data is necessary for the interpretation of results.

02

Initiatives Supporting Genomics Research Drives the Bioinformatics Market

Bioinformatics software helps researchers in analyzing and interpreting vast amounts of diverse genomic data. Bioinformatics is used in genomics for several applications, including genome assembly, functional genomics, comparative genomics, structural genomics, metagenomics, and cancer genomics. There has been a significant increase in funding for genomics research due to increased research activities, which has led to the development of advanced sequencing technologies and bioinformatics tools that have made it possible to analyze vast amounts of genomic data.

Genomics research is crucial in discovering new drugs, developing personalized medicines, and improving researchers’ understanding of disease mechanisms. Therefore, several private organizations and government entities are funding genomics research to improve patient outcomes and strengthen genomics infrastructures. For instance, in July 2021, the National Institutes of Health (U.S.) announced an investment of USD 80 million to support the establishment of the Mendelian Genomics Research Consortium and develop novel methods and approaches to aid researchers in identifying the genetic causes of single gene diseases. Such initiatives generate large amounts of genomics data for which bioinformatics tools are crucial to analyze and interpret this genomics data, driving the market growth.
