Key Problem and Market Opportunity

  • Around 14 million people were killed by Infectious diseases annually worldwide, i.e. 25% of the total death recorded.  Therefore, there is high prevalence rate of infectious diseases and increased demand for rapid diagnostic techniques due to slow turnaround time of current techniques.
  • Infectious diseases point-of-care testing (POCT) market is set to rise from $696.1 million in 2015 to just over $1.17 billion by 2022 according to research and consulting firm GlobalData
  • The rising demand for faster diagnosis and control of influenza due to the rapidly increasing prevalence of influenza.
  • The global influenza diagnostics market is expected to reach USD 767.4 Million by 2021 from USD 508.0 Million in 2016
