Precision medicine, which tailors treatments to individual genetic profiles, is increasingly driving the need for high-quality, well-preserved biological samples, as these form the foundation for personalized therapies. Additionally, the growing pipeline for cell and gene therapies is expected to be a major driver for the biobanking market in the coming years. The development of new cell and gene therapies, which often rely on stem cells, gene editing, and other advanced biotechnologies, necessitates storing and managing vast amounts of biological material. Biobanks are essential in supporting these therapies by providing a reliable and standardized platform for sample storage, processing, and distribution.
The physical biobanking segment accounted for the largest share of the biobanking services market in 2024.
Based on services, the biobanking market is segmented into physical biobanking, virtual biobanking, and other services. In 2024, the large share of physical biobanking services in the market can be attributed to the essential role they play in sample collection, storage, and preservation under controlled conditions. Physical biobanks offer the infrastructure necessary to store a wide range of biological samples, including blood, tissues, and DNA, in environments such as freezers, cryogenic tanks, and refrigerators, ensuring sample integrity for long-term use. As the demand for high-quality biological specimens grows, driven by advancements in precision medicine and genomics, physical biobanks are crucial for maintaining the stability and accessibility of these samples. Additionally, the ability to provide reliable, on-site sample management and real-time monitoring systems has further cemented the importance of physical biobanks in supporting pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and research sectors.
By ownership, the private/commercial providers segment accounted for the largest share of the market in 2024.
Based on the ownership model, the biobanking services market is segmented into private/commercial providers, academic & research institutional biobanks, national/regional agencies, hybrid/PPP (public-private-partnership) models, and other ownership models. In 2024, the private/commercial providers segment accounted for the largest share of the global biobanking market. The large share of the private/commercial providers model in the biobanking market is primarily driven by the growing demand for high-quality, scalable, and commercially viable biobanking solutions. These providers can offer advanced, state-of-the-art infrastructure and technology for sample storage, processing, and distribution, often tailored to meet the specific needs of pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and clinical research sectors. Commercial providers are also more agile in adopting innovations and expanding their services to meet the evolving demands of precision medicine, genomic research, and clinical trials. Their ability to provide comprehensive, end-to-end biobanking services and focus on efficiency and regulatory compliance has made them essential partners for organizations seeking reliable and standardized biological sample management. As a result, the private/commercial ownership model continues to dominate the market, with private players capturing a significant share.
The US dominated the biobanking market in 2024.
In 2024, the US held a significant share of the North American biobanking market, driven by its advanced healthcare infrastructure, substantial investment in research and development, and leading role in precision medicine. With numerous world-renowned academic institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and research organizations, the US is at the forefront of generating and utilizing biological samples for a wide range of scientific advancements. The growing emphasis on personalized medicine, genomics, and clinical trials has increased the demand for high-quality biobanks in the region. Additionally, favorable regulatory frameworks and substantial public and private funding continue to support the expansion of biobanking services, solidifying the dominant position of the US in the market.
