What Will Be The Growth Driving Factors In The Bioprocess Automation Market In The Forecast Period?
The rapid growth of the global bioprocess automation market leading up to 2029 will be driven by the following key factors that are expected to reshape biopharmaceutical manufacturing, upstream and downstream processing, and overall production efficiency worldwide.
Increasing Prevalence Of Chronic Diseases- The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases will become a key driver of growth in the bioprocess automation market by 2029. The growing burden of chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disorders, autoimmune conditions, and cancers is driving demand for biologic therapies, including insulin, monoclonal antibodies, recombinant proteins and cell and gene therapies. These biologics are highly complex to manufacture and require precise control of living systems, which cannot be reliably achieved through manual processes alone. Bioprocess automation ensures reproducibility, reduces variability, and maintains compliance with stringent regulatory standards, making it a critical enabler of scalable production. As more patients globally require advanced biologics to manage chronic conditions, automation will become indispensable for meeting both quality and volume requirements. As a result, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is anticipated to contributing to a 1.0% annual growth in the market.
Increase In The Expansion Of Contract Development And Manufacturing Organizations (CDMOs) And Outsourcing- The increase in the expansion of contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMOs) and outsourcing will emerge as a major factor driving the expansion of the bioprocess automation market by 2029. The rising reliance on CDMOs for biopharmaceutical manufacturing is fuelling adoption of automation technologies. CDMOs cater to multiple clients simultaneously, each requiring consistent, high-quality, and regulatory-compliant production. To manage diverse projects efficiently, CDMOs increasingly turn to bioprocess automation tools like robotic sample handling, automated chromatography, SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) or DCS (distributed control system) systems and advanced analytics. These tools allow them to improve throughput, minimize error, shorten timelines, and enhance scalability. As outsourcing continues to grow, CDMOs’ investments in automation will be critical in maintaining competitiveness and meeting biopharma clients’ expectations for cost-effective and reliable production. Consequently, the increase in the expansion of contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMOs) and outsourcing is projected to contributing to a 0.9% annual growth in the market.
Rising Investments In Biotech Research And Development (R&D)-The rising investments in biotech research and development (R&D) as a major factor driving the expansion of the bioprocess automation market by 2029. As biotech R&D funding expands, more novel therapeutic modalities are entering the pipeline, including next-generation vaccines, cell therapies, gene therapies, and advanced protein therapeutics. These products demand new approaches to process development, optimization, and scale-up. Automation plays a key role here by enabling high-throughput experimentation, process analytical technologies (PAT), digital twins and AI (artificial intelligence) and ML (machine learning)-driven optimization. By reducing time from discovery to clinical manufacturing and increasing the success rate of scale-up, automation helps translate R&D into commercially viable therapies faster. Thus, higher R&D investment naturally accelerates demand for advanced bioprocess automation solutions to support innovation. Consequently, rising investments in biotech research and development (R&D) is projected to contributing to a 0.6% annual growth in the market.
Expansion Of Vaccine Production- The expansion of vaccine production will emerge as a major factor driving the expansion of the bioprocess automation market by 2029. Vaccine production will continue to expand as new vaccine platforms, such as mRNA, recombinant protein and viral vector technologies, move beyond COVID-19 applications into areas like influenza, RSV (respiratory syncytial virus), cancer immunotherapy, and emerging infectious diseases. This growth will create sustained demand for highly scalable and flexible manufacturing systems. Bioprocess automation will play a central role by enabling faster changeovers between vaccine types, reducing the risk of contamination, and ensuring consistent quality at high volumes. Automated bioreactors, filtration and chromatography systems and robotic fill-finish operations will allow manufacturers to rapidly adjust to fluctuating global health needs. Moreover, automation platforms integrated with process analytical technology (PAT) and data-driven control systems will support regulatory compliance while improving efficiency and throughput. Consequently, the expansion of vaccine production is projected to contributing to a 0.3% annual growth in the market.
