Market Analysis

Scope and Importance of Biotechnology

Biotechnology is technology or set of techniques based on biology - biotechnology harnesses cellular and bio molecular processes to develop products and technologies that help to improve our lives and the health. It includes the manipulation of organisms on the molecular and genetic level to improve health, safety, nutrition and environment .Biotech is helping to heal the world by harnessing nature’s own toolbox and using our own genetic makeup to heal the genetic diseases. In Current Scenario there are more than 250 biotechnology health care products and vaccines available to patients, for many previously untreatable diseases. More than 13.3 million farmers around the world were using agricultural biotechnology to increase yields of their farm and to prevent damage from insects, pests and reduce farming’s impact on the environment. Modern biotechnology provides breakthrough on products and technologies to combat the debilitating and rare diseases and to reduce our environmental footprint, feed the hungry, and use less and cleaner energy, and have safer, cleaner and more efficient industrial manufacturing processes.

Recent advances in biotechnology are helping us to prepare for and meet society’s most pressing challenges and the ways to rectify it. Modern biotechnology applies not only modern genetics but also advances in other field of sciences. However, there is a third revolution that is just emerging, which is nanotechnology. The development of these techniques is to visualize and manipulate the atoms individually. Nano-scale techniques are now beginning to play substantial role in the applications of biotechnology.

World renowned experts and intellectuals agree that biotechnological innovation is the foundation-stone of our future, and a ‘game changer’. It is anticipated that it will underpin our economy and provide solutions to intractable problems of human beings and animal diseases, food security, fuel alternatives, climate change, as well as improving our quality of life.

Devastating Diseases

Biotechnologies, and other biomedical innovations, are likely to lead to the production of new and improved vaccines, diagnostics as well as treatments with which to tackle disease. Biotechnology will help improve the understanding of disease, disease pathology, epidemiology, and vector control.

Biotechnology has opened the door to the discovery and development of new types of human therapeutics. Biotechnology medicines already treat or help prevent heart attacks, stroke, multiple sclerosis, leukaemia, hepatitis, congestive heart failure, lymphoma, kidney cancer, cystic fibrosis, and other diseases.

Sustainability is vital as we progress into the future. Biotechnology will help in building a Sustainable World.

In this digital age, conferences and face-to-face meeting are increasingly being substituted by webinars, video conferences and other forms of digital communication. There are some clear advantages with digital communication such as convenience, cost and time savings. Despite these advantages, the impact of communicating in person is much higher and is backed by scientific evidence. According to a study published in the Journal of Neuroscience, during face-to-face communication, synchronization of brain activity between partners occur leading to successful exchange of information. Besides, frequent eye-contact during face-to-face communication helps build trust between individuals and produce better outcomes such as increased creativity and productivity. Hence, conferences and meetings are necessary even in a world dominated by digital communication channels.

Industry Insights

The Global biotechnology market size was estimated at USD 369.62 billion in 2016. Presence of room for partnerships in the sector is expected to drive significant progress in the industry. The companies are focusing on the development of novel techniques and their implementation by collaborating with the other participants. Organizations such as the DBT (Department of Biotechnology) together with government funded institutions and other autonomous organizations representing the biotechnology sector promote funding to support R&D and new product development endeavours.

Rise in demand for these therapeutics and diagnostic solutions on principles of red biotechnology, DNA sequencing, and recombinant technology is anticipated to fuel growth. Increasing prevalence of diseases such as hepatitis B, cancer, and other orphan disorders is expected to fuel demand in this space.
