The global academic market for analytical and life science instrumentation is enormous. Covering 17% of the $67 billion industry, it is the largest individual end market, encompassing university research labs, core labs, non-profit research institutes, and university clinical research. A bastion of basic research, academia is at the frontier of scientific discovery itself. For today’s suppliers of laboratory instrumentation and supporting products, a deep understanding of the dynamics and complexities of the academic market is therefore paramount to be successful.
The academic market has fallen upon uniquely difficult times during the COVID-19 pandemic, with universities having to cancel research opportunities all over the world due to severe budget constraints and the full or partial closure of laboratories. Amidst the chaos of such market uncertainties, there is also plenty of opportunity for recovery and growth in the months and years ahead.
Although we routinely cover the dynamics of market demand from the public sector, this report is the first publication to focus exclusively on the instrumentation market for academia. The Market Opportunity for Lab Instrumentation in Academia examines regional trends facing academia, opportunities and threats, and detailed market data covering ten technology categories:
- Life Science Instrumentation
- Chromatography
- Mass Spectrometry
- Atomic Spectroscopy
- Molecular Spectroscopy
- Materials Characterization
- Surface Science
- Sample Preparation Techniques
- Lab Automation & Informatics
- Lab Equipment
Market segmentation and five-year (2019 - 2024) forecast by product type, region, and academic subsector is provided for each category. Also, each category provides the 2019 supplier market share and technology participation matrix.
