Exploring the Growth Drivers and Opportunities in the Genome Editing Market
The global genome editing market is projected to USD 11.7 billion by 2026 from USD 5.1 billion in 2021, at a CAGR of 18.2 % between 2021 and 2026. Recent developments in this field have led to significant improvements in the genome editing capabilities that have enabled the modification of gene sequences of interest in a wide variety of cell types and model organisms. Genome engineering, earlier used by large research organizations, such as academic and government research centers, has now become a potentially transformative diagnostic tool, especially for oncology studies. This shift from academics to clinical and diagnostic laboratories is primarily driven by rapid improvements in gene editing technologies. The market for genome editing market is highly fragmented, with a large number of small to medium manufacturers competing with established 2-3 players such as Thermo Fisher (US), Merck KgaA (Germany), GenScript (China) that account for a share of approximately 20% t...
