Increasing R&D Activities and a Growing Number of Patients to Boost the Pharmaceutical Market

Published: May 2023

The global pharmaceuticals market is anticipated to grow at a considerable CAGR of 6.7% during the forecast period (2023–2030). According to EUROSTAT data, the pharmaceutical industry has the highest added value per person employed, which is significantly higher than the average value for high-tech and manufacturing industries. The pharmaceutical industry also has the highest R&D investment to net sales ratio. The key factor driving this growth of the market is that the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors account for 18.4% of total business R&D expenditure worldwide, according to the 2020 EU Industrial R&D Investment Scoreboard. Countries across the globe are focused on new drug development activities to meet the rising drug demand. For instance, according to the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Association, in 2019, the pharmaceutical industry in Europe invested more than €37,700 million ($40,323.9 million) in R&D.

Another factor contributing to the market’s growth is the increasing number of patients as well as the geriatric population, which is more susceptible to diseases. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), by 2050, one-fourth of the population in the Asia Pacific region will be 60 or older, owing to declining fertility and increased longevity. Besides, the key market players, such as AstraZeneca, Aurobindo Pharma, Baxter, and others, are contributing to the market with various mergers, acquisitions, expansions, and investment activities.For instance, in February 2023, Gland Pharma announced that it would invest INR 400 crore ($48.4 million) to expand its existing facility in Genome Valley to produce biologicals, biosimilars, antibodies, and recombinant insulin. Additionally, in March 2023, Unicycive Therapeutics, Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology firm developing therapies for kidney disease patients, announced that it had signed a securities purchase contract with certain healthcare-focused institutional investors, which will raise up to $130 million in gross funds for Unicycive through a private placement that includes a $30 million upfront funding.
