Global Drug Discovery Services Market Size study & Forecast, by Process (Target Selection, Target Validation, Hit-to-Lead Identification, Lead Optimization, Candidate Validation), by Type (Chemistry Services, Biology Services), by Drug Type (Small-Molecule Drugs, Biologics), by Therapeutic Area (Oncology, Infectious Diseases, Neurological Diseases, Immunological Diseases, Endocrine and Metabolic Diseases, Respiratory Diseases, Digestive System Diseases, Cardiovascular Diseases, Genitourinary Diseases, Other Therapeutic Area), by End User (Pharmaceutical & Biotechnology Companies, Academic Institutes, Other End Users), and Regional Analysis, 2023-2030


Global Drug Discovery Services Market is valued approximately USD 17.9 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 14.9% over the forecast period 2023-2030. Drug discovery services encompass a range of scientific and technological solutions provided by specialized organizations to support the identification, development, and optimization of new drug candidates. These services involve various stages of the drug discovery process, including target identification and validation, high-throughput screening, hit-to-lead optimization, medicinal chemistry, ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion) studies, and preclinical development. Through a combination of expertise, advanced technologies, and research methodologies, drug discovery services aim to accelerate the discovery and development of safe and effective drugs, ultimately advancing healthcare and addressing unmet medical needs. The market drivers boosting the market growth are increasing R&D expenditure and growing prevalence of chronic diseases.

According to Statista, in 2022, the total spending on pharmaceutical R&D accounted to USD 238 billion and is expected to amount to USD 285 billion in 2028. The rising incidence of chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological disorders has created a significant need for innovative and effective drug therapies. According to Statista, the cancer deaths worldwide are projected to rise from nearly 10 million in 2022 to over 16 million by 2040. Moreover, expansion of Biologics and Cell-Based therapies and increasing demand for personalized medicines may create lucrative opportunities. However, the high cost of Drug Discovery and limited availability of skilled workforce stifles market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.

The key regions considered for the Global Drug Discovery Services Market study includes Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America dominated the market in 2022 owing to a well-established pharmaceutical sector, ongoing research and development projects, significant R&D spending, expansion of the biosimilar and generics markets, and increasing outsourcing of R&D services by pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies in the region. However, Asia Pacific is expected to become the fastest growing during the forecast period, owing to factors such as growing pharmaceutical industry, and increasing outsourcing drug discovery activities to specialized service providers to streamline operations, reduce costs, and access specialized expertise.
