Market Analysis 

Pharmaceuticals

The global pharmaceutical excipients market is projected to reach USD 8.1 Billion in 2021 at a CAGR of 6.1% in the forecast period 2016 to 2021. The rising demand for new drug delivery systems, greater understanding of the functional benefits of excipients, growing pharmaceutical industry, and patent expiries of several blockbuster drugs are positively impacting the overall growth of the market. Within the next three years, global sales of pharmaceuticals will reach $1.6 billion and, according to a study by Deloitte, Italy is well positioned to take a significant slice of the sector. Figures from industry association Farmindustria bear that out: with €29 billion in revenue in 2014, Italy is the second-largest producer of pharmaceuticals in Europe after Germany. But, above all, it is the biggest exporter within Europe. And the pace of Italy’s exports is growing faster than anywhere on the continent. In 2014 alone, oversea sales of pharmaceuticals rose by 72%. Between 2010 and 2014, Italy’s exports rose by $8.1 billion, Germany’s by $7.9 billion.

Nursing

The global infection surveillance solutions market is projected to reach USD 508.8 Million by 2021, at a CAGR of 14.1% from 2016 to 2021. The market has witnessed substantial growth in the past few years driven by the increasing incidence of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), government policies for preventing HAIs, rising healthcare expenditure, and increasing number of surgeries.

Immunology

The global plasma fractionation market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2016 to 2021 to reach USD 26.07 Billion by 2021. Growing aging population, rising incidences of bleeding and immune disorders, and growing use of immunoglobulin and alpha-1-antitrypsin are expected to propel the growth of this market. However, the high cost of plasma products, adverse reactions associated with use of products, and limited reimbursement policies can hinder the growth of this market. Moreover, the increasing usage of recombinant coagulation factors as an alternative to plasma-derived coagulation factors is further hampering the growth of this market to a certain extent.

Neuroscience

Global neuroscience industry demand was worth USD 24.09 Billion in 2013 and is anticipated to reach above USD 34 .30 billion by 2020. Rising investment in R&D resulting in the development of numerous products in the neuroinformatics coupled with adequate funding from the government are key factors that drive growth in this market. Neuro-informatics involves designing and developing efficient tools and algorithms that can augment the performance of structural and functional mapping. Global Neuroscience market is expected to grow at CAGR of 2.9% over the next seven years.

Cancer

More than 20 tumor types are being treated with one or more of the 70 new cancer treatments that have been launched in the past five years, with the sustained surge in innovative therapies driving the global oncology market to $107 billion in 2015. However, many of these drugs are not yet available to patients in most countries, and even when registered they may not be reimbursed under public insurance programs, according to a new study released by the IMS Institute for Healthcare Informatics. Annual global growth in the oncology drug market is expected to be 7.5 to 10.5% through 2020, reaching $150 billion
