Scientia Advisors, my client, today  released a comprehensive review of the Life Science Tools Industry.

Among the key points:

  • It’s a complex arena, likely to remain largely in the US for the next few years,  despite intense growth in the Asia-Pacific Region.
  • The industry is fragmented despite dominance by just a handful of companies.  Leading companies face competition as smaller companies consolidate.
  • Scientia projects combined annual growth of eight per cent through 2012 and beyond.
  • Growth is expected for cell-based assays and cell-isolation technologies; live cell analysis; cell-based assays for drug discovery research and development; kinases, RNAI and biomarker research, and cell preparation and manipulation.

The review is available for download from Scientia’s Web site at www.scientiaadv.com.
