The Life Science and Biotech Industry in Latin America
Latin America is a key emerging region for multinational Biotech companies, the industry is forecast to expand to USD76.9bn with a 10.9% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) at constant exchange rate terms through to 2023.
In addition, Brazil, Mexico and Argentina account for almost two-thirds of total medicine sales across the Latin America region, market growth is anticipated to remain robust across the region over the coming years, boosted by increased reform momentum within the healthcare sector to increase the populationās access to services. Furthermore, the fourth most attractive region in the world in which to commercialize medical devices.
Mexico, Colombia and Brazil offer the best Industry Rewards, supported by large market sizes and high production capabilities, particularly in Brazil.
The life Science sector is constantly penetrating new markets through a variety of innovative Biotech products, services and applications. On the other hand, the demand for biotechnology products depends on the level of knowledge, demographics and social trends among consumers.
According to a new report by Grand View Research, the global biotechnology market is expected to reach USD 727.1 billion by 2025. In addition, by 2023, United states will export $18.2 billion;however imports are also projected to expand to $39.2 billion during the same period.

Areas to Work Together
Rapid advances in biotechnology and pharmaceutical sciences in Latin America can be an opportunity as well as a challenge. The Institute of the Americas is here to help you!
Red Biotech- Pharma, Medical, Diagnostics, Med devices, Health
Red biotechnology has become a very important part of the medical field and is of tremendous use in the field of diagnostics, prevention medicine and medical treatments.
It considers production of vaccines and antibiotics, discovery of new drugs, regenerative therapies, construction of artificial organs and new diagnostics.
Green Biotech - Agriculture, Environmental Biotech, Biofertilizers, Biofuels, Geomicrobiology
Green biotechnology or plant technology is growing very rapidly. It works at improving economically important crops as also producing new plant products, also helps in the production of bio fuels, bio fertilizers and bio pesticides.The most important areas of research and application in the field of green technology include plant tissue culture, genetic engineering in plants, plant molecular marker assisted breeding, cannabis, bio fertilizers and bio pesticides as also hybridization.
Yellow Biotech - Food Biotech, Nutrition Science
Yellow biotechnology involves the use of bio-engineering to make food and insect biotech. A classic example of yellow biotechās adaption of natural resources for our palates is food fermentation to enhance properties such as the taste, aroma, texture and nutritional value of food, food additives. Within the yellow biotech sector, biologists and foodies are rising to the challenge “from great demand comes great potential”
