Synthetic Biology Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Number of Start-Ups

Biotechnology entrepreneurs can quickly raise funds and procure equipment and space from governments in their countries. For instance, For instance, the Indian government financed IITM Bioincubator, a division of the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, to establish a bioinformatics infrastructure facility and a cutting-edge cancer biology research center. Organizations include the Department of Science and Technology (DST), the Department of Biotechnology (DBT), and the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) contributed the funding. In China, Chinaccelerator is a financer that provides mentorship programs to help start-ups. It is also associated with SOSV Investments LLC, which helps in the establishment of start-ups by providing funds through programs such as RebelBio and Indie Bio. The easy availability of funds for ideas motivates entrepreneurs worldwide to establish synthetic biology businesses.

Collaboration Between Companies

Synthetic biology is the branch of biotechnology that would provide opportunities for nearly every aspect of the healthcare sector, including drug delivery, protein therapeutics, biofuels, and food and agricultural product development. It provides opportunities for biotechnology entrepreneurs to accelerate discovery, reduce clinical failures, and be more cost-efficient. Synthetic biology offers companies a broad scope of opportunities to collaborate inter-disciplinary globally between synthetic biologists, policymakers, researchers, and industry. For instance, in August 2021, Riffyn Inc. and Imperial College’s Centre collaborated for Synthetic Biology (IC-CSynB), and SynbiCITE’s London Biofoundry sets for synthetic biology research and education in scientific reproducibility. These are the primary factors that make companies grow in the synthetic biology market and are likely to impact market growth in the forecast period.
