There is increasing adoption of analytics solutions in various healthcare applications, including clinical trials. The number of clinical trials is growing every year, and there was a total of 362,534 various tests registered across the globe as of 2020. These trials generally generate a massive amount of complex data as so many activities are involved, and it is difficult to analyze all the generated data manually. This has resulted in the development of many data analytics solutions to support clinical trials.
The emergence of COVID-19 is expected to positively influence the growth of the global market as pandemic has led to the increased activities to develop new drugs, vaccines and many clinical trials are being conducted across the globe. All these processes are complex, and for faster progress, solutions are needed that will boost the life science analytics market growth during the forecast period.
Growth Drivers
The growth of the global market will be driven by the factors such as the increasing adoption of technology in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. The emergence of modern technologies and the increased focus on improving patient outcomes will further propel the market growth for life science analytics during the forecast period.
Analytics also acts as an essential role in the drug discovery process. The adoption of analytic solutions will help the companies evaluate and find potential drug candidates that will significantly reduce the expenditure and time for pharmaceutical companies and contract research organizations (CROs). At each stage of drug discovery and development, the analysis evaluates the safety and efficacy of the drug before proceeding to the next step. All these factors augment the growth of the market for life science analytics.
Pharmaceutical companies have adopted digitization in every department as they help in research and development activities and play a critical part in improving the efficiency of manufacturing capabilities, marketing, and sales. The adoption of the technology in research & development and the manufacturing process has helped to increase productivity and reduce errors.
The life science analytics industry players are following various strategies, including new product launches, and funding to increase their share in the industry. In December 2020, Amazon launched a Big Data solution named Amazon HealthLake, and this product will help facilitate big data solutions and standardize patient information in healthcare. Inference raised USD 60 million in Series B funding in December 2020 to help the company further develop its AI-powered software platform that has applications in clinical research, drug discovery, and operations.
