Today, Biotechnology has changed the face of healthcare innovation. While in early 2000’s large pharma companies were the hub for traditional research and development initiatives, today, with the inclusion of diverse sciences such as genomics, recombinant gene techniques, applied immunology, and diagnostic tests, biotechnology represents a new era for the rapid development of new medicines including biologics. Globally, this market has been driven by increased research and development expenditures combined with macroeconomic and demographic trends. Biopharmaceuticals is one of the fastest growing segment and accounts for the largest share of the Indian biotechnology industry at 58 percent, with its growth being fuelled by the efforts towards the development of personalized medicines, novel therapeutics for COVID-19, cancer, and other disorders, accurate and reliable diagnostic tools for several conditions, R&D around novel large-molecule drugs for diabetes, cardiovascular disease, oncology, and anti-inflammation applications and more.
