Growth Drivers

  • Growing Prevalence of Skin Cancer Worldwide - For instance, nearly 9,400 people get affected by skin cancer every day in the United States, and over 2 people die of skin cancer each hour. A nanomedicine application is used to treat skin cancer. In this way, medications and other medicinal treatments can be administered efficiently to specific tumor areas and target cells with minimal side effects. Nanomedicine is used to determine a new method of detecting cancerous cells in the blood, called Nano Flares. Thus, the rising utilization of nanosensors in medicines for the treatment of skin cancers is expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.
  • Rapid Expansion of the Electronics Devices Sector Worldwide - It was observed that the global electronic devices market accounted for USD 2.8 Trillion in the year 2020. India's share in the electronics devices sector rose by 3.5% in 2019 up from 1.2% in 2012.
  • Surge In Number of Laboratory Tests Conducted in Medical Settings - As per the centers for disease control and prevention, nearly 14 billion laboratory tests are carried out every year. These tests play an important role in taking out 70% of medical decisions. 
  • Rising Spending on Research and Development Activities – According to World Bank data, global expenditure on research and development accounted for 2.63% of total GDP in the year 2020, up from 2.2% in the year 2018.
  • Increasing Personal Disposable Income- As per the data by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, disposable personal income grew to USD 37.6 billion (0.2%) in July 2022, whereas personal consumption spending rose by USD 47 billion (0.2%). 

Challenges

  • High Costs Associated with Hi-Tech Nanosensors - The commercial success of nanosensors was already severely impacted by the lack of understanding about the health consequences of nanomaterials and the high costs of certain fresh ingredients. As per recent data, produce nanosensors with a total yielding capacity of 1 million units per year for less than USD 5.2 each, and conduct client demos.
