Dublin, Oct. 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Synthetic Biology Market by Product, Application, Technology, End User, and by Region - Global Forecast to 2023-2033" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global synthetic biology market, which was valued at USD 11.24 billion in 2022, is poised for remarkable growth with an anticipated Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 24.17% during the forecast period of 2023-2033. The market's expansion is driven by several factors, including increased funding from government and private sectors and technological advancements meeting high demand. However, ethical concerns, biosafety and biosecurity issues, and product development may pose challenges to market growth.
Rising Funding and Government Support
One of the key drivers for the growth of the synthetic biology market is the escalating funding from both government and private sectors. The world is facing challenges such as dwindling antibiotic options, a rise in chronic diseases like cancer and HIV, and a pressing need for effective treatments across various diseases. Synthetic biomedicine research has gained significant traction, aided by rising government funding.
For example, in July 2022, SynBioVen committed USD 5.7 million (£5.5 million) in financing to SynbiCITE, the UK's National Centre for the Industrial Translation of Synthetic Biology. This funding, along with investments in companies like Arbor Biotechnologies and DNA Script, demonstrates the growth potential of the synthetic biology market.
Technological Advancements Meeting Demand
Market players are introducing cutting-edge technologies to meet the growing demand in the synthetic biology market. For example, in November 2021, Creative Biogene developed shRNA products to expedite RNAi research. These advancements are crucial in accelerating research efforts and innovation in the field of synthetic biology, further driving market growth.
