Global Biodefense Market size was valued at USD 2.6 billion in 2023. It is likely to grow up to USD 4.8 billion by 2030 at a CAGR of 4.2 % during the forecast period ranging between 2025 and 2030.

Technology and tactics used to prevent biological threats are referred to as biodefense. Measuring the risks of germs, viruses, or bioterrorism is also beneficial. In order to support DNA sequencing and immunization, the procedure makes use of cutting-edge technologies including biosensors and quick detection systems. By recognizing prompt responses to epidemics, they also aid in preserving and regaining public health. The world has been made acutely aware of the gravity of biological dangers and the necessity of preparation by global pandemics such as COVID-19. Governments, military agencies, and medical facilities increasingly place a high premium on biological weapons detection, fast reaction capabilities, and pandemic early warning systems. Investments in modern DNA analysis technology, vaccine research, diagnostic kits, and biosensors are growing rapidly. However, limited and uneven global preparedness to deal with biological threats is hindering the market growth.
