Increasing Investments in R&D in Biopharmaceutical Industry Bolster Middle East & Africa Upstream Bioprocessing Market
Increasing investments in research and development (R&D) in the biopharmaceutical industry are likely to bring new trends into the upstream bioprocessing market in the coming years. In March 2020, Culture Biosciences announced securing the funds of US$ 15 million (13.4 million) in the Series A investment round, citing the backing of new and existing venture capital backers. According to Culture Biosciences, the money has been used to treble the capacity of bioreactors as well as to develop more cloud-based software monitoring and development tools for biomanufacturing research and development. The company states that this investment will help scientists manage their whole R&D workflow via software applications, hence supporting the digitization of biomanufacturing R&D.
As R&D investments continue to surge, particularly in novel biologics, advanced therapies, and personalized medicine, there is a parallel emphasis on optimizing upstream bioprocessing technologies and methodologies. This trend is leading to the development of innovative bioreactor systems, cell culture media formulations, and process automation solutions to enhance the efficiency, scalability, and productivity of biopharmaceutical production operations. Furthermore, the focus on R&D investments favors the development of cutting-edge bioprocessing platforms that cater to the evolving landscape of biopharmaceuticals, including next-generation therapeutic modalities and biosimilars. Additionally, dedicating R&D funds for bioprocessing trends such as continuous bioprocessing and advanced analytics for process monitoring is expected to reshape the future of upstream bioprocessing, driving the adoption of state-of-the-art technologies and establishing new benchmarks for process performance, quality, and regulatory compliance.
