This article summarizes the key insights from the Roots Analysis report, focusing on market size, growth drivers, segmentation, challenges, and leading players.
Market Growth Projections
The global vaccines market is currently valued at $48 billion and is projected to reach $94 billion by 2030, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.9% during the forecast period. Notably, these figures exclude COVID-19 vaccine sales, reflecting the underlying demand for vaccines targeting a broad spectrum of infectious diseases[4].
Drivers of Growth
Several factors are fueling the expansion of the vaccines market:
