The rising prevalence of life-threatening diseases and stringent regulatory norms imposed by healthcare agencies worldwide propel pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies worldwide.

Pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies are spearheading the end-user segment for the pharmaceutical intermediates market. The key drivers associated with its dominating market growth are the rising prevalence of life-threatening diseases and the stringent regulatory norms pertaining to cGMP and cGLP guidelines for drug manufacturing imposed by healthcare agencies worldwide.

Research laboratories have shown impressive growth in the last two decades on account of increasing demand for pharmaceutical intermediates in developing novel medicines for treating rare and autoimmune diseases. Contract manufacturing organizations will highlight rampant growth during the forecast period on account of increasing demand for generic medicines due to the patent expiration of blockbuster drugs in the near future and a significant rise in drug manufacturing outsourcing activities to penetrate untapped markets worldwide.

The presence of well-developed healthcare infrastructure and rising public health awareness together drive market growth in North America.

North America presently holds 35.8% market growth and is the largest regional segment for the pharmaceutical intermediates market. The drivers responsible for its positive market growth are the presence of a well-developed healthcare infrastructure and rising public health awareness. Europe is placed second in the regional segment, representing 30.4% of the market, on account of a significant rise in the patient population seeking medical intervention for life-threatening diseases and the supportive regulatory environment provided by the European Medical Agency (EMA) for the pharmaceutical intermediates market.

Asia Pacific is accountable for 20.2% of the market share owing to proactive government policies resulting in flourishing drug manufacturing activities and serves as a lucrative market opportunity for western giants to enter into strategic collaboration and agreements with local players owing to the flourishing generic drug market in the Asia Pacific region.
