The Saudi Arabia in-vitro diagnostics market is predicted to reach USD 932.3 Million by 2030, from USD 734.7 Million in 2024. Saudi Arabia is the largest market for in-vitro diagnostics in the GCC region. As in other countries, Saudi Arabia is facing the challenges of fighting infectious diseases, including HBV, TB, HC, V, and HIV, as well as various chronic diseases and cancer. In-vitro diagnostics play an important role in the detection of infectious and chronic diseases. The rising geriatric population and the high burden of chronic and infectious diseases propel the growth of Saudi Arabia's in-vitro diagnostics market, as these chronic disorders can be diagnosed and monitored using in-vitro diagnostics (IVD) products. Furthermore, the Saudi Arabian government is taking several initiatives to improve the healthcare sector in the country. For instance, under Vision 2030, the Saudi Arabian Government plans to invest over USD 65 Billion to develop the country’s healthcare infrastructure. The government has set the target of privatizing 290 hospitals and 2,300 primary health centers by 2030. Also, the government seeks to improve the country’s healthcare sector by adopting digital information systems.
